KYDEX® 6523HI is a proprietary, high performance thermoplastic sheet with integral colour specifically engineered to improve aircraft passenger safety. Integrally pearlescent, this sheet is perfect to use with LED lighting or on its own.

KYDEX® 6523HI is designed to provide material deformation when used in components subjected to the HIC (Head Injury Criterion) Test for increased passenger safety. Its integral pearlescent colour gives the appearance of painted metal and allows light weighting and increased durability when replacing composite and metal panels. It meets the flammability and smoke development requirements outlined in FAR 25.853(a) and (d).
