The market is expected to usher in a stage of rapid development in the next five years. The midstream enterprises in the ...Read more -
What is fiberglass and why is it widely used in the construction industry?
Fiberglass is an inorganic non-metallic material with excellent properties. It is made of pyrophyllite, quartz sand, limestone, dolomite, borosite and borosite as raw materials through high temperature melting, wire drawing, winding, weaving and other processes. The diameter of the monofilament...Read more -
Glass, carbon and aramid fibers: how to choose the right reinforcement
The physical properties of composite materials are dominated by fibers. This means that when resin and fibers are combined, their properties are very similar to those of individual fibers. Test data show that fiber-reinforced materials are the components that carry most of the load. Therefore, fa...Read more -
The main material difference between fiberglass cloth and glass
Fiberglass gingham is an untwisted roving plain weave, which is an important base material for hand-laid fiberglass reinforced plastics. The strength of the gingham fabric is mainly in the warp and weft direction of the fabric. For occasions requiring high warp or weft strength, it can also be wo...Read more -

The world’s first 3D printed fiberglass swimming pool
In the United States, most people have a swimming pool in their yard, no matter how big or small, which reflects an attitude to life. Most traditional swimming pools are made of cement, plastic or fiberglass, which are usually not environmentally friendly. In addition, because labor in the countr...Read more -
Why are glass fibers drawn from glass fusion flexible?
Glass is a hard and brittle material. However, as long as it is melted at high temperature and then quickly drawn through small holes into very fine glass fibers, the material is very flexible. The same is glass, why is the common block glass hard and brittle, while the fibrous glass is flexible...Read more -
【 Fiberglass 】What are the commonly used reinforcing materials in the pultrusion process?
The reinforcing material is the supporting skeleton of the FRP product, which basically determines the mechanical properties of the pultruded product. The use of the reinforcing material also has a certain effect on reducing the shrinkage of the product and increasing the thermal deformation temp...Read more -
