What are the uses of fiberglass?

Glass fiber is an inorganic non-metallic material with excellent performance, with a wide range of advantages, such as good insulation, strong heat resistance, good corrosion resistance, and high mechanical strength, but the disadvantage is brittleness and poor wear resistance. It is made of glass balls or waste glass as raw materials by high-temperature melting, drawing, winding, weaving and other processes, and the diameter of its monofilament is a few microns to more than 20 microns, and each bundle of fiber precursors is composed of hundreds or even thousands of monofilaments. Glass fiber is commonly used as a reinforcing material in composite materials, electrical insulating materials and thermal insulation materials, circuit substrates and other fields of the national economy.

Glass fiber is more temperature resistant than organic fiber, non-combustible, corrosion-resistant, good heat and sound insulation, high tensile strength, and good electrical insulation. But brittle and poor wear resistance. Used to make reinforced plastics (see color map) or reinforced rubber, as a reinforcing material, glass fiber has the following characteristics, which make the use of glass fiber far more extensive than other types of fiber.

According to the shape and length, glass fiber can be divided into continuous fiber, fixed length fiber and glass wool, according to the composition of glass, can be divided into alkali-free, chemical-resistant, high-alkali, medium-alkali, high-strength, high elastic modulus and alkali-resistant glass fiber.

Fiberglass cloth is an inorganic non-metallic building material, which is one of the important consumables for the production of FRP products. Due to its different characteristics, it has been widely used in various productions, and due to its different manufacturers, the quality and quality of the glass fiber cloth produced are not the same. Therefore, if you want to buy high-quality products, you need to buy them from regular manufacturers.

So what are the characteristics and uses of this fiberglass cloth? Let's take a look at the introduction of Qingxiang. What are the characteristics and uses of fiberglass cloth?

It is understood that fiberglass cloth fiberglass pattern cloth is a kind of non-twisted plain weave cloth, which is an important substrate for hand lay-up FRP. The strength of the patterned fabric is mainly in the warp and weft direction of the fabric. For occasions with high requirements for warp or weft strength, it can also be woven into a unidirectional cloth, and multiple rovings, single warp yarns and single weft yarns can be arranged in the warp or weft direction.

The following is a specific introduction to fiberglass cloth. Features of fiberglass cloth:1

The fiberglass cloth is used between a low temperature of minus 196 and a high temperature of 300 °C, and is highly weather resistant. 2.Fiberglass cloth is non-adhesive and does not adhere to any substance easily.

3.Fiberglass cloth is resistant to chemicals, strong acids, strong alkalis, aqua regia and various organic solvents, and can withstand the effects of drugs. 4.

Fiberglass cloth has a low coefficient of friction and is a good choice for oil-free self-lubrication. 5.The light transmittance of glass fiber cloth reaches 6 13%.

6.Fiberglass cloth has high insulation performance, anti-ultraviolet ray, anti-static. 7.

Fiberglass cloth has high strength and good mechanical properties. 8.Chemical resistance of fiberglass cloth.

Use of fiberglass cloth:1Fiberglass cloth is mostly used in the hand lay-up process.

Fiberglass cloth is mainly used in ship hulls, storage tanks, cooling towers, ships, vehicles, tanks, etc. 2.Fiberglass cloth is widely used in wall reinforcement, exterior wall insulation, roof waterproofing, etc.

It can also be used to reinforce cement, plastic, asphalt, marble, mosaic and other wall materials. It is an ideal engineering material for the construction industry. 3.

Fiberglass cloth is usually used as a reinforcing material in the field of national economy such as composite materials, electrical insulating materials and thermal insulation materials, circuit boards, etc. 4.Fiberglass cloth is mainly used in industry for heat insulation, fire retardant and flame retardant.

The material absorbs a lot of heat when it is burned by a flame and can prevent the flame from passing through and isolate the air.

The use of fiberglass: The glass rope twisted from fiberglass can be called yes"Very good in the rope. "A finger-thick glass rope can lift a truck full of goods!

Since the glass rope is not afraid of seawater corrosion and will not rust, it is suitable for use as a ship cable, crane rope. Although the rope made of synthetic fiber is strong, it melts at high temperatures, while the glass rope is not afraid, so it is especially safe for ambulance personnel to use glass rope.

Fiberglass is processed to weave a wide variety of glass fabrics – glass cloth. Glass cloth is neither afraid of acids nor alkalis, so it is ideal for use as a filter cloth in chemical plants. In recent years, many factories have used glass cloth instead of cotton cloth and sack cloth to make packaging bags.

This kind of bag is not moldy or rotten, moisture-proof and corrosion-proof, durable, very popular with people, and can also save a lot of cotton and linen. There is a large glass wall cloth with exquisite patterns, paste it on the wall with adhesive, beautiful and generous, eliminate the need for painting and maintenance, and as long as you wipe it with a cloth, the wall will immediately become clean again.

Fiberglass is both insulating and heat-resistant, so it is an excellent insulating material. At present, most of China's motor and electrical appliance factories have used a large number of glass fiber as insulating materials. A 6,000 kilowatt steam turbine generator, including more than 1,800 insulating parts made of fiberglass!

Due to the use of glass fiber as insulating material, it not only improves the performance of the motor, but also reduces the volume of the motor, and also reduces the cost of the motor, which is really a triple win.

Another important use of fiberglass is to work with plastics to make various fiberglass composites. For example, layers of glass cloth are soaked in hot-melt plastic and pressurized to become famous"FRP".FRP is even tougher than steel, neither rust-resistant, but also corrosion-resistant, while weighing only a quarter of the same volume of steel.

Therefore, it can be used to make the shells of ships, cars, trains and machine parts, which can not only save a lot of steel, but also reduce the weight of the car and the ship itself, so that the payload capacity is greatly increased. Since it does not rust, many maintenance costs can be eliminated.

If, after the glass is melted, it is blown into thin and short fibers with a high-velocity air stream or flame, this becomes glass wool. There is a kind of moisture-proof ultra-fine glass wool, more than 200 pieces of which are only as thick as a single hair. Glass wool has strong thermal insulation properties, 3 cm thick glass wool, its thermal insulation capacity is equivalent to 1 meter thick brick wall!

The sound absorption effect of glass wool is also very good. Therefore, it is used in many industrial sectors as a material for thermal insulation, sound insulation, heat insulation, shock protection and filtration.

Glass fiber can be used as a circuit substrate, many circuit boards are made of glass fiber material, glass fiber can well prevent circuit short circuit, overheating and combustion, etc., is a good protective material for the circuit, can cooperate with the circuit to form a complex circuit diagram.

Fiberglass can be made into glass rope, which is very strong and safe, and can also prevent corrosion. Glass fiber can be processed to weave a variety of glass cloth, and many factories now use glass cloth instead of cotton cloth to make packaging bags, which are very durable. Another important use of glass fiber is to cooperate with plastics to make various glass fiber composite materials, such as glass fiber reinforced plastic.

Fiberglass is a good insulating material that can be used to make board circuits. It can also be used to make 3D printing materials, and it can also be used to make fiberglass.

Glass fiber can be used as a circuit substrate, many circuit boards often encountered in life are made of glass fiber material, glass fiber can well prevent circuit short circuit, overheating and combustion, etc., is a good protective material for the circuit, can cooperate with the circuit to form a complex circuit diagram, to achieve many aspects of intelligent life in life.

Now the circuit integration and circuit board in life need to use composite materials with good insulation performance, and the general circuit board has good electrical insulation and thermal insulation performance, which can ensure the use of the circuit for a long time, ensure the stability of electrical equipment, glass fiber as an insulating material.

Glass fiber is an inorganic non-metallic material with high strength insulation, heat resistance and corrosion resistance, and is a reinforcing material of composite materials widely used in life.
