CapaCoustic MelaporMelamine resin foam elements in different sizes,shapes and colours.
Product Description
Material DescriptionCapaCoustic Melapor elements consist of a thermosetting, flexible melamine resin foam with a filigreeopen-pored structure.
System DescriptionCapaCoustic Melapor panels may be bonded either directly as a wall covering or ceiling lining onto thestable substrate or may be positioned to the ceiling as a baffle or floating (suspended) ceiling panelusing standard T-shaped guide rails.CapaCoustic Melapor elements are excellently suitable for a later renovation, due to quick mountingand easy handling.

Technical Information No. 034
For rooms showing an intensive reverberation effect it is very often necessary to take reverberationregulating (suppressing) measures. In such cases the application of systems provided with sound-absorbing properties is used in order to reduce the reverberation time in all relevant rooms.For this purpose special open-porous and head-porous materials are used to reduce the penetratingsound energy.The sound energy reducing effect is achieved by the friction of air molecules (being set into oscillationby sound propagation) with pore sides within the open-pored structure.
Typical application areas are, e.g.:– Offices and call centres,– Showrooms,– Restaurants,– Schools and day-care centres,– Meeting rooms,– Training rooms or seminar rooms,– Machine shops and production halls,– Sound studios.
Field of Application
■ High sound absorption (see diagrams).■ Temperature resistance:
Long-term: -40 °C up to +180 °CShort-term: up to +200 °C
■ Heat conductivity: 0.035 W/(mK) according to DIN 52612.■ Fire behaviour classification: C-S1, d0, tested according to DIN EN 13501-1; corresponds to class
B1 according to DIN 4102-1 (with adhesive and paint coating, tested within the system).■ Bulk/green density: Approx. 10 kg/m³■ Free of mineral fibres and physiologically harmless.■ Colour: White. Coatable with CapaTrend, tinted according to Caparol 3D-plus colour fan deck
without any diminishing effect on absorption and fire behaviour.■ No electrostatic charge – does not absorb dust.

Technical Information No. 034Application
1. Substrate PreparationThe substrate must be even/planar, clean, dry, solid, sound/stable, free from all substances, that mayprevent good adhesion and should be slightly absorbent.Carefully remove dust, dirt/soiling and coats of flaking paint. Prime the substrate, if necessary.See Technical Information No. 160 for preparing suitable substrates.
2. Bonding of CapaCousticMelapor Panels
2.1 Preparation of Adhesive/GlueCapaCoustic Melapor-Kleber (adhesive/glue) is ready for use with notched trowels, without using anyfurther additives. Stir the product shortly with a suitable low-speed electric paddle (agitator). Adjust toapplication consistency with a small amount of tap (potable) water, if necessary. For lambskin rollerapplication adjust the application consistency with max. 2 % of tap water, if necessary.
2.2 Application of Adhesive/Glue
Notched trowel application:Apply an even layer of adhesive to the surface to be coated or onto the CapaCoustic Melapor Paneland then treat with a notched trowel (3x3 mm notching).
Roller application:Apply with a lambskin roller (13 mm pile height) and evenly spread to the surface to be coated or ontothe CapaCoustic Melapor Panels, until a uniform surface wetting is achieved. In both procedures theCapaCoustic Melapor Panels must be bonded without delay, when CapaCoustic Melapor adhesive(glue) is applied.Open time of adhesive (glue): Approx. 15 minutes at 20 °C.Diminished adhesion may occur with a higher substrate absorbency, higher temperature, humidity ormovement of the air due to accelerated drying of adhesive.
2.3 ConsumptionApprox. 1.5 kg/m2
2.4 Application TemperatureLower temperature limit during application and drying: +5 °C for product, substrate and ambient air.
2.5 BondingStick CapaCoustic Melapor Panels to the stable substrate. It is advisable to use a suitable pressureboard, e.g. large surface PU disc, to avoid punctiform loads which may cause partial damage ofpanels. Avoid soiling of fair-faced panels with adhesive mortar. Provide for a min. 20 mm wide shadowgap in order to achieve a convincing visual effect.
3. Suspension of Baffle Elements
3.1 CapaCoustic Melapor BafflesMounting parts (suspension attachment) for vertical or horizontal suspension from ceilings are notincluded in the scope of delivery, but are optionally deliverable. Product No.: 034/20
3.1.1 Mounting of CapaCoustic Melapor BafflesInsert the T-shaped guide rail of CapaCoustic Set 034/20 to the Baffle and suspend it from ceiling,using the wire ropes and fixing elements of the set.To avoid any slip out of position it is advisable to lock the Baffle element with a silicone blob, whenmounted.If required, the Baffles may also be suspended from the ceiling with customary T-shaped guide rails,e.g. made by USG/Donn, and using suitable fixtures (mounting accessories) and structures.
3.2 CapaCoustic Melapor Decken-Segel / Floating Ceiling PanelsThe floating ceiling panels are fixed to the ceiling at four anchorage points. Fixtures for a continuouslyvariable suspension (max. 4.5 m): Included in delivery.
4. Colour CoatingCapaCoustic Melapor elements can be coated (before or after mounting) with CapaTrend in thedesired colour shade. Preliminary sampling is required when the coat of paint should match an existingsurface in shade.
4.1 Preparation of PaintDilute CapaTrend with approx. 30 - 40 % of tap (potable) water.
Technical Information No. 034
4.2 Application of Paint CoatApply the paint coat only by high pressure or low pressure spraying method. Apply 2-3 mist coats ofdiluted paint crosswise in a distance of approx. 25 cm. Crosslinking of paint on the surface must beavoided. Airless application is not advisable.
4.3 ConsumptionApprox. 100 ml/m2 (undiluted)
4.4 Drying of ElementsAllow elements/panels to fully dry between working steps/operations. During the drying phase theyshould be supported on an even substrate or must be hung to keep shape.All elements must be thoroughly dry before they can be bonded or hung.Drying time: Min. 24 to 48 hrs., depending on temperature and relative humidity.
Advice
Workmanship:Wear clean gloves for bonding and mounting of CapaCoustic Melapor elements to avoid any soiling ofthe elements/panels.
Customization:CapaCoustic Melapor elements/panels can be cut to size with a sharp utility knife.
Dimensional Tolerances:Up to 250 mm: ± 3 mmOver 250 up to 1,000 mm: ± 5 mmOver 1,000 up to 2,000 mm: –5/+10 mm
Shrink Holes/Pores:The panels may have pores in various sizes (max. 15 mm) and frequency.
Colour Deviation:Uncoated elements may vary (slightly) in colour, due the manufacturing process.
