WILLSTRONG® T-ZCP Titanium-Zinc Composite Panel

Product Introduction

The WILLSTRONG® T-ZCP Titanium-Zinc Composite Panel combines the natural metallic appearance and patina characteristics of titanium-zinc with a composite core designed for structural rigidity, flatness and durability.

The titanium-zinc facing develops a distinctive natural finish over time and offers self-healing characteristics associated with the formation of a protective patina. Unlike conventional coated metal panels that depend on an artificial PVDF finish for their visual character, T-ZCP is designed to preserve the natural appearance of titanium-zinc while providing a lightweight composite panel structure.

The panel is suitable for premium ventilated façades, roofing, eaves, shading elements, signage, storefronts and architectural landmark projects. Its combination of flatness, rigidity, acoustic performance, fire-rated core options and weather resistance provides flexibility for demanding architectural applications.

WILLSTRONG® supplies T-ZCP titanium-zinc composite panels for architectural projects requiring natural metallic aesthetics, long-term durability and versatile fabrication.

Key Product Advantages

1. Natural Titanium-Zinc Finish

The titanium-zinc outer layer provides a distinctive metallic appearance that can develop naturally with exposure. Its patina contributes to an evolving architectural finish and supports the material's natural corrosion protection characteristics.

2. Self-Healing Patina

Titanium-zinc can develop a protective patina over time. This natural surface process provides self-healing corrosion resistance and helps the panel maintain its appearance and performance under atmospheric exposure.

3. High Strength and Rigidity

The composite construction combines metal facing layers with a lightweight core to achieve high structural rigidity. The specified section modulus is 1.88 cm³/m and rigidity is 3080 kNcm²/m.

4. Excellent Flatness

The composite structure is designed to maintain excellent panel flatness. This characteristic is particularly valuable for large architectural surfaces where visual uniformity and smooth transitions are important.

5. Fire-Rated Core Options

T-ZCP can be configured with different core constructions and corresponding fire ratings. The supplied specifications include A2-s1,d0 and B-s1,d0 configurations under EN13501-1.

The A2 configuration uses a non-combustible mineral-filled core, while the B1 configuration uses a flame-retardant mineral-filled core with halogen-free flame-retardant additives.

6. Acoustic Performance

The composite structure provides sound damping and acoustic insulation characteristics. The specified sound transmission loss is ≥25 dB, while the sound absorption factor is 0.05.

7. Corrosion Resistance

The titanium-zinc surface provides natural resistance to atmospheric corrosion. Additional coating performance data also demonstrates resistance to salt spray, acids, solvents, moisture and accelerated weathering under the specified test conditions.

8. Versatile Design Options

T-ZCP is available in natural and pigmented titanium-zinc finishes, providing options for different architectural concepts and façade designs.

9. Custom Dimensions

Standard panel thicknesses include 4 mm, 5 mm and 6 mm. The panel width is available at 1000 mm, with custom cut lengths and custom dimensions available upon request.

10. Suitable for Multiple Building Surfaces

The panel can be used for façades, roofs, eaves and shading elements. Its lightweight composite construction also supports fabrication into architectural details and transitions.

Product Structure

The T-ZCP composite panel consists of a titanium-zinc facing layer, composite core and surface treatment system.

The supplied physical specifications identify titanium-zinc/aluminum layer thicknesses of 0.7/0.5 mm depending on the construction. Core options include mineral-filled polymer configurations, while the surface may incorporate lacquering or patina finishes.

The panel construction is designed to combine the visual characteristics of titanium-zinc with the dimensional stability and structural properties of a composite panel.
