The basic application and function of Fiberglass Cloth in the construction industry

Fiberglass Cloth is often used in the construction industry. Many people want to know what role Fiberglass Cloth plays in construction. Next, the editor of the Fiberglass Cloth manufacturer will share with you the application of Fiberglass Cloth in construction projects.

First of all, everyone needs to know what Fiberglass Cloth is. Although Fiberglass Cloth is not unfamiliar to people engaged in the construction industry, it is indeed unfamiliar to many other people. Fiberglass Cloth, also called grid cloth, is an alkali-resistant product made from alkali-resistant or medium-alkali Glass Fiber yarn as raw material, woven into Fiberglass Cloth as the base material, and then coated with acrylic copolymer and dried.
Nowadays, it is necessary to insulate and plaster the energy-saving exterior walls of buildings to prevent cracking. Because the insulating dry mortar has low strength and a thickness of 30mm, it is easy to crack, so it is necessary to add Fiberglass Cloth and then cover it. Fiberglass Cloth has the characteristics of stable structure, high strength, good alkali resistance, anti-corrosion and crack resistance. It has good reinforcement effect and is simple and easy to construct. Exterior wall alkali-resistant Fiberglass Cloth is mainly suitable for reinforcing and preventing cracks on the internal and external surfaces of cement, gypsum, walls, buildings and other structures. It is a building material for exterior wall insulation projects.
Although interior wall insulation grid cloth and Fiberglass Cloth are both structural materials and can prevent cracks, their uses will have some subtle differences due to different use environments. Fiberglass Cloth has higher hardness and stronger performance, and its weight is usually around 80 to 160 grams. The Fiberglass Cloth does not need to bear too much pressure, so its mass is lighter at about 50 to 60 grams. What are the advantages of Fiber Glass compared to other wall materials?
First, Fiberglass Cloth has high tensile strength and durability. Fiberglass Cloth is made of high-strength fiber material and has excellent tensile strength, which can effectively withstand the tensile force caused by the external wall. Compared with traditional masonry or concrete walls, Fiberglass Cloth can increase the load-bearing capacity of the wall and improve the overall earthquake resistance and durability.
2. Fiberglass Cloth has good breathability and waterproof performance. Due to the special structure of the Fiberglass Cloth, the wall ventilation effect is good, which can reduce the accumulation of moisture and dampness problems in the wall, and effectively prevent the generation of mold and musty smell. At the same time, the paint painted on the Fiber Glass has excellent waterproof properties, which can prevent most moisture from penetrating into the wall and reduce the risk of wall diseases caused by moisture damage.
3. Fiberglass Cloth construction is simple and fast. Compared with traditional wall materials, the installation of Fiberglass Cloth is very simple. You only need to fix the Fiberglass Cloth on the wall and then apply appropriate paint. This construction method not only saves time, but also reduces labor costs. In addition, the Fiberglass Cloth can be cut and adjusted according to the special shape and needs of the wall to adapt to different construction environments and design requirements.
4. Fiberglass Cloth has good fire resistance. Fiber materials usually have good fire resistance. As a wall material based on fiber materials, Fiberglass Cloth has high flame retardant properties, which can effectively slow down the spread of flames, reduce the occurrence of fire accidents, and improve the quality of buildings and buildings. Safety of residents.
5. Fiberglass Cloth can provide better appearance and design flexibility. Fiberglass Cloth can be painted in a variety of colors to meet the needs of different design styles and personal preferences. In addition, the surface texture of the Fiberglass Cloth is clear, which can present a relatively smooth and beautiful appearance after the construction is completed, increasing the overall beauty of the building.
6. Fiberglass Cloth can improve the energy efficiency of buildings. Due to the breathability of the Fiber Glass, the wall can better exchange heat with the external environment and achieve natural regulation of heat. This can reduce the frequency of use of air conditioning and heating equipment, reduce energy consumption and improve the energy efficiency performance of the building.
