Fiber Glass Mat-Reinforced Plastic

Chemical Composition:

Silicon Dioxide 52-56% min

Calcium Oxide 16-25% Max

Aluminum Oxide 10-12%

Boron Oxide 8-12%

Magnesium Oxide 0-6%

Sodium Oxide 0-1%

Potassium Oxide 0-1%

Material Description:

A material consisting of extremely fine glass fibers, used in making various products, such as yarns, fabrics, insulators, and structural objects or parts. Also called spun glass.

Extraction process:

The manufacturing process for glass fibers suitable for reinforcement uses large furnaces to gradually melt the silica sand, limestone, kaolin clay, fluorspar, colemanite, dolomite and other minerals to liquid form.

BASIC PROPERTIES
Compressive Strenght
Tensile Strenght (N/M2)
Stifness (N/M2)
