As a high-performance composite material, industrial fiberglass cloth has significant advantages in physical and chemical properties compared with other types of fiber cloth.
1. High strength and high stiffness
High tensile strength: The tensile strength of industrial Fiberglass cloth is significantly higher than traditional synthetic fibers such as nylon and polyester fibers. This makes Fiberglass cloth excellent in high-stress working environments.
High stiffness: Fiberglass cloth has a high Young's modulus and can resist deformation, making it suitable for applications that require shape stability, such as aerospace and construction.
2. Excellent heat resistance
High Temperature Performance: Industrial fiberglass cloth is able to maintain its structural integrity and performance in high temperature environments, often withstanding temperatures up to 550°C. This gives it significant advantages for use in high-temperature processing and extreme environments.
Low thermal expansion coefficient: Compared with metal materials and many organic polymer materials, Fiberglass cloth has a lower thermal expansion coefficient and can maintain dimensional stability in environments with large temperature differences.
3. Chemical stability
Chemical corrosion resistance: Fiberglass cloth has good corrosion resistance to most chemicals and can resist a variety of corrosive media such as acids, alkalis, salts and organic solvents. It is suitable for internal coatings of chemical equipment and storage tanks.
Aging resistance: Under the influence of natural environmental factors such as ultraviolet rays and ozone, Fiberglass cloth also shows good anti-aging properties and can maintain its physical and chemical properties for a long time.
4. Insulation performance
High insulation: Fiberglass cloth has excellent electrical insulation properties and high resistivity. It is widely used in electrical insulation materials, printed circuit board substrates, high-temperature wire insulation and other fields.
5. Lightweight properties
Low density: Compared with metal materials, Fiberglass cloth has a lower density, which gives it application advantages in applications that require lightweight and high-strength materials (such as aerospace vehicles and lightweight automotive structures).
High specific strength: Due to its combination of high strength and low density, the specific strength (ratio of strength to weight) of Fiberglass cloth is much higher than that of other types of fiber cloth.
6. Versatility
Composite material reinforcement: Fiberglass cloth is usually used to reinforce resin and plastic-based composite materials to form high-strength, high-stiffness and corrosion-resistant composite materials, suitable for a variety of engineering applications.
Ease of processing: Fiberglass cloth can be flexibly formed through weaving, cutting and compounding to adapt to the processing needs of various complex structures.
7. Environmental performance
Recyclability: Fiberglass cloth, as an inorganic non-metallic material, can be recycled and reused after being discarded, which reduces environmental pollution and meets the requirements of sustainable development.
To sum up, industrial fiberglass cloth has many aspects such as high strength, high stiffness, excellent heat resistance and chemical stability, good insulation properties, lightweight properties, multi-functionality and environmental protection performance in terms of physical and chemical properties. Significant advantages.
