Emission factor summary

The activity generating the emissions is thermocompression for wet thermoset composite product, excluding electricity use. The reference product is thermocompression for wet thermoset composite product. This is delivering the service of "thermocompression for wet thermoset composite product". Layers of fibres and wet resin (e.g.: epoxy). When the tool is closed, the material fills the cavity and polymerizes. Once fully cured, the parts are released under heat. 1 kg of this process corresponds to 0.80 kg of the final product at the end of the process. The converted amount of material (fibres and resin) is not included into the dataset. The user should list 1kg of the service and 1 kg of the resin and fibre INPUT for an OUTPUT of 0.80 kg of material processed. If an activity requires 1 kg of thermocompressed product, the user should list (i) 1/0.80 = 1.25 kg of the service and 1.25 kg of the resin/fibres type processed. Electricity INPUT is NOT included, the relevant electricity dataset input for stamping has to be added to the current dataset. The reference product amount is 1. The cut-off classification is allocatable product. The activity type is ordinary ordinary transforming activity.
