Jan 06, 2011 Initially available on DE75 yarn, 947 direct sizing system for E-Glass yarns provides aerospace customers with opportunities to remove weight from traditional composite products while increasing tensile and compressive strengths. Fibers with 947 sizing can be woven into fabric and used in composite applications without additional finishing, eliminating related fabric integrity erosion. Currently, 947 sizing is compatible with epoxy and phenolic resins as well as thermoplastics.

Jun 02, 2010 Compliant with UL 1441 VW-1 flame test, PET yarn meets halogen-free, flame-retardant regulations and no flaming drip requirement. Product supports processing and functional requirements for textiles used in both interior vehicle trim and wiring harness insulation in land, water, and air vehicles. It features 2 melamine-based, flame-retardant materials which, when burned, char so that burning drips don't form. Constituents of material also vaporize, diluting oxygen that can feed fire.

Apr 26, 2010 Intended for use as reinforcement and dielectric in PCB substrates, ultra-fine yarns are woven into fabric and laminated with epoxy resin and copper foil to produce copper clad laminate. E-Glass composition enhances electrical insulator properties while providing thermo-mechanical stability to PCBs. Respectively used to produce fabric styles 1037 and 1027, C1200 and BC 1500 yarns consist of 100 filaments of 4.5 and 4 micron dia.

Apr 13, 2009 Used in printed wiring board applications, L-Glass(TM) exhibits dielectric constant (Dk) and dissipation factor (Df) suited for designs requiring increased signal speeds and integrity. Dk is 4.86 and Df is 0.0050 at 10 GHz, and coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) is 3.9 ppm/°C. Suited for use in IC packaging, fiber is available in various yarn counts that will allow production of low-loss fabrics analogous to styles 106, 1080, 2113/2313, and 2116.

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.
