PSI and minimum % elongation @ break of 140%.
IPEMA Certification: Manufacturer must provide proof of certification. “In the interest of
public playground safety, IPEMA provides an independent laboratory which validates a
manufacturer's certification of conformance to ASTM F1292-04. A list of current validated
products, their thickness and critical heights may be viewed at www.ipema.org.”
Submittal Details:
Submittal packages shall include but not be limited to: (1) product samples, (2) supplier's
written warranty, and (3) independent laboratory results.
PART 2 - MATERIAL DATA:
Polyurethane Primer and Binder - 100% Single Component Polyurethane Binding Agent -
Methylene Dephenyl Isocyanate (MDI) based binder.
Aromatic Binder - All projects will include aromatic binder unless project specifies the use
of aliphatic binder. The natural properties of the aromatic binder is to present a yellow tint
which may cause some EPDM/TPV colors to amber. The yellowing affect is more common
on lighter EPDM colors and will wear off with foot traffic and weathering.
Aliphatic Binder - This binder is available upon request but at an added cost to the over all
project. Aliphatic binder is all clear providing full EPDM/TPV color from day one. This
binder has a higher resistance to ultra violet light and provides a greater resistance to wear.
Impact Course - The impact layer is to be a precise combination of 100% recycled black
Styrene Budadine Rubber (SBR) and polyurethane binder. SBR is manufactured as a liquid,
poured into molds and generally used by the automobile industry. This recycled rubber is
shredded, mixed with binder and hand-trowelled to create a seamless application. The impact
course thickness, as specified by owner or architect, must be composed of recycled rubber and
free of foreign matter.
Wear Course - The wear course is made of Ethyl Propolyne Dione Monomer (EPDM)
or Thermal Plastic Vulcanized (TPV) pigmented rubber granules with polyurethane binder.
Thickness of the wear course shall be a minimum 1/2".
EPDM- The granule size will be 1-3 mm in diameter.
TPV- The granule size will be 1-4 mm in diameter.
