Properties and Applications of Fiberglass for Reinforcing Composite Materials
What is fiberglass? Fiberglass are widely used due to their cost-effectiveness and good properties, mainly in the composites industry. As early as the 18th century, Europeans realized that glass could be spun into fibers for weaving. Fiberglass have both filaments and short fibers or flocs. Glas...Read more -
Strengthens building material strength without the need for rebar ARG Fiber
ARG Fiber is a glass fiber with excellent alkali resistance. It is commonly mixed with cements for materials used in building construction and civil engineering. When used in glass fiber reinforced concrete, ARG Fiber—unlike rebar—does not corrode and reinforces with a uniform distribution throug...Read more -
Common problems and solutions of carbon fiber composite pultrusion
The pultrusion process is a continuous molding method in which the carbon fiber impregnated with glue is passed through the mold while curing. This method has been used to produce products with complex cross-sectional shapes, so it has been re-understood as a method suitable for mass production a...Read more -
High-performance vinyl resin for ultra-high molecular weight fiber pultrusion
The three major high-performance fibers in the world today are: aramid fiber, carbon fiber, and ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene fiber, and ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene fiber (UHMWPE) has the characteristics of high specific strength and specific modulus. Performance composite...Read more -
Expands uses for resins and contributes to industries like automotive and electronics
Take, for example, automobiles. Metal parts have always accounted for most of their structure, but today automakers are simplifying production processes: they want better fuel efficiency, safety and environmental performance; and they are creating more modular designs utilizing lighter-than-metal...Read more -
Fiberglass in those gym equipment
Many fitness equipment you buy contains fiberglass. For example, the electronic skipping ropes, Felix sticks, grips, and even the fascia guns used to relax muscles, which are very popular at home recently, also have glass fibers. Larger equipment, treadmills, rowing machines, elliptical machines....Read more -
Basalt fiber: an environmentally friendly new material that “turns stone into gold”
“Touching a stone into gold” used to be a myth and a metaphor, and now this dream has come true. People use ordinary stones – basalt, to draw wires and make various high-end products. This is the most typical example. In the eyes of ordinary people, basalt is usually the buildin...Read more -
Application of light-curing prepreg in the field of anti-corrosion
Light-curing prepreg not only has good construction operability, but also has good corrosion resistance to general acids, alkalis, salts and organic solvents, as well as good mechanical strength after curing, like traditional FRP. These excellent properties make light-curable prepregs suitable fo...Read more -
