SiBa20/150a/ALU50 SiBa/-a
Flammability Fire-proof Fire-proof
For measurements with insulation, a layer thickness of 8 cm SiBa 20/150a was applied. Look-
ing from the surface of the tank, a 6 cm layer of SiBa 20/150a was rst applied. A 2 cm layer of
SiBa 20/150a/ALU50 was then nally applied on top of this layer.
