Diolen Industrial Fibers    ARNHEM 6800 TC  Netherlands
Sep 17, 2007 Made with Fortron® polyphenylene sulfide, high-tenacity Diofort® is inherently flame-retardant and chemical resistant. It can be combined with glass, carbon, and other polymer fibers to yield blended fabrics. In addition to reinforcing hydraulic oil hoses in power steering systems where it reduces noise and vibration, product can be applied in fuel lines and charge-air coolers to provide resistance to high pressure and temperature while allowing flexibility.
