Introduce the characteristics of glass yarn

Fiber Glass is an inorganic non-metallic material with excellent performance. Raw materials and their applications glass yarn has higher temperature resistance than organic fibers, is non-flammable, corrosion-resistant, has good heat and sound insulation, high tensile strength and good electrical insulation. But it is brittle and has poor wear resistance. Fiber Glass is mainly used as electrical insulation material, industrial filter material, anti-corrosion, moisture-proof, heat insulation, sound insulation and shock absorption material. It can also be used as reinforcing material to make products such as reinforced plastic or reinforced rubber, reinforced gypsum and reinforced cement. Covering glass yarn with organic materials can improve its flexibility and can be used to make packaging cloth, window screens, wall cloths, covering cloths, protective clothing, and electrical insulation and sound insulation materials. As a reinforcing material, glass yarn has the following characteristics. These characteristics make glass yarn used far more widely than other types of fibers, and its development speed is also far ahead. Its characteristics are listed as follows:

(1) High tensile strength and small elongation.
(2) High elastic coefficient and good rigidity.
(3) The elongation within the elastic limit is large and the tensile strength is high, so it absorbs large impact energy.
(4) It is an inorganic fiber, non-flammable and has good chemical resistance.
(5) Low water absorption.
(6) Dimensional stability and heat resistance are good.
(7) It has good processability and can be made into products of different shapes such as strands, bundles, felts, and woven fabrics.
(8) Transparent and can transmit light.
(9) The development of a surface treatment agent with good adhesion to resin has been completed.
(10) Cheap price.
(11) It is not easy to burn and can be melted into glass-like beads at high temperatures.
