Test results of resistance to molten iron splash in accordance with EN ISO 9185:2007 [55]: the angle of iron outpour onto the sample was 75° and the time of metal outpour onto the sample was 2.5 s.

SD—standard deviation. Note: For protective parameters (“mass of metal poured” and “molten metal splash index”), the mean and standard deviation (SD) were not calculated, because these parameters were obtained by trial-and-error by repeating the procedure of pouring a smaller or larger amount of metal, until the minimum amount of metal that initiated PVC (polyvinyl chloride) film damage was determined.
