What are the applications of glass fiber continuous mat
1. Introduction to Fiberglass Continuous Filament Mat
Fiberglass continuous filament mat, a remarkable material, consists of continuous glass filaments that are randomly arranged and bonded together. This unique structure endows it with extraordinary properties, making it a popular choice across diverse industries.
2. Application in pultruded profiles
As a lightweight structural material, FRP pultruded profiles are widely used in chemical anti-corrosion grids, cable trays and building components. The use of continuous filament mat reinforcement in various profiles and pipes can greatly improve the cross-sectional strength and rigidity of the products.
3.Application in RTM process
Continuous filament mat can be used in RTM molding process to manufacture various doors, windows, automobile bumpers, aviation seats, etc. due to its high strength, high porosity, and resistance to resin erosion.
4.Application in SMC
SMC, or sheet moldingcompound, a composite molding material formed at 150°C and a relatively low pressure, and is suitable for industrial production. Products made by composite molding of continuous filament mat and SMC sheets can be used in automobile bumpers, seats, electrical housings, etc., with significantly improved strength and great market potential.
5. Application in winding molding process
Continuous filament mat is used as the anti-corrosion lining of FRP pipes. It has high tensile strength and fast resin penetration, and can form a good resin-rich layer. Even if the winding speed is fast, the felt will not break.
6. Application in LNG
Continuous filament mat (CFM) is used in LNG ships for its high strength and corrosion resistance, primarily in insulation layers and composite structures to ensure thermal efficiency and durability.
7.Why Our Fiberglass Continuous Filament Mat Stands Out？
High Tensile Strength
For fan blade, it needs high tensile strength. Our CFM450 can reach 170 N/75 mm (Warp) and 160 N/75 mm (Weft), very high.
