Glass fiber noun analysis
Glass fiber is an essential material for the composition of glass fiber tubes. This section introduces the related terms of glass fiber.
【Artificial Glass Fiber】
It refers to artificially melting the melt by external force, stretching and cooling, and hardening into a fibrous unit of amorphous structure. It is usually a general term for fiberglass and mineral wool. Also included in the broadest sense are man-made elemental glass fibers, plexiglass fibers, and other inorganic glass fibers.
【glass fiber】
An artificial inorganic fiber. Use natural ore such as quartz sand, limestone, self-cloud stone, kaolin, pyrophyllite, etc., together with other chemical raw materials such as soda ash, acidity (also can be replaced by alkali, containing natural ore), etc., into glass, In the molten state, it is drawn, blown or twisted into a very fine fibrous material by external force. According to its composition and properties, it can be divided into non-alkali glass fiber (including non-stretched raw glass fiber), medium alkali glass fiber, high alkali glass fiber and special glass fiber; according to its form, it can be divided into continuous glass fiber and fixed length fiberglass. And glass wool; according to the production method, there are basically two types: one is to make the molten glass directly into the fiber, and the other is to make the molten glass into a ball, a rod or a block, and then use it as a raw material, and use various heating methods. After remelting, it is made into fibers. The basic properties of glass fiber are: non-combustible, corrosion-resistant, high-temperature resistant, low hygroscopicity, small elongation, high tensile strength, good chemical stability, good electrical insulation and thermal insulation properties, and poor flexibility and folding resistance. Due to the different glass composition, the performance of one aspect can be more prominent. It can be made into various forms of products, such as yarn, wool yarn, cloth, tape, circular cloth, mat, felt, board, shell and so on. It can be used as electrical insulation materials, filter materials, heat insulation, sound absorption, shock absorption materials, anti-corrosion materials, moisture-proof materials, etc.; and it can be used as a reinforcing material to make composite materials with various organic or inorganic materials, such as glass fiber reinforced thermosetting plastics. (Glass steel), glass fiber reinforced thermoplastics and reinforced rubber products, glass fiber reinforced inorganic cementitious materials such as reinforced plaster and cement; organic coating treatment can also be used to improve its flexibility, making various soft products such as packaging cloth, Screens, curtains, wall coverings, tarpaulins, architectural membranes and special protective equipment. These products are widely used in industrial, agricultural, construction and civil applications. And because it has some excellent properties that other materials do not have, it has become an indispensable material in the military industry.
[Continuous glass fiber]
A large category classified by fiberglass morphology. When the molten high-temperature viscous glass liquid flows out of the pupil, it is drawn into an infinitely long glass fiber by an external force. Continuous glass fibers have different thicknesses and their uses are different. Generally, fibers of 3 -9 μm in diameter are woven into various textile products, such as cloth, belts, sleeves, etc., which are often referred to as textile-type glass fibers because they are often subjected to textile processing; they are made of fibers having a diameter of 10 -24 μm. It is a reinforcing material such as roving, roving, chopped strand, chopped strand mat. Therefore, it is also called enhanced glass fiber.
