Ecological Design of New Type Aluminum-Plastic Composite Panel Based on LCA

Abstract:

Aluminum-plastic composite panel is a kind of new type energy-saving and environmental-friendly curtain wall decorative material and is widely used in building exterior wall, curtain wall board, old building reconstruction and renovation and other projects. With the development and improvement of production and application technology, the performance and function of aluminum-plastic composite panel products are constantly optimized. Especially at the present, all countries in the world have increasingly strict requirements on fire safety, and the fire safety standards of buildings also have been improved continuously. Against this background, manufacturing enterprises have been actively developing new techniques and manufacturing new type aluminum-plastic composite panel, and have significantly improved the fireproof and flame-retardant properties of products on the basis of ensuring all the performance levels of products being acceptable. In this paper, the life cycle environmental impact of new type aluminum-plastic panels in three different ecological designs are compared based on life cycle assessment (LCA), and the suggestions on optimizing ecological design are proposed in combination with the performance indicator of aluminum-plastic composite panel, so it has important guiding significance for developing ecological design in industry of metal composite decorative panels.
