Introduction

"C" GlassC-GLASS.jpg (16974 bytes)

A chemical resistant glass commonly used for surfacing veil.

 

 

"E" Glass

A borosilicate glass commonly used for glass fibres for FRP structural layers.  "E" glass is suitable for electrical laminates because of its high resistivity which gives it the common name "electric glass".

E-Glass Cloth has been available since the 1940’s and is still the most widely used and the most economical composite reinforcement. It is made from strands of continuous glass filaments plied and twisted into yarn. It is chrome finished (Volan A) and is suitable for use with all polyester, vinyl-ester, and epoxy resins.

S-2 Glass Cloth was developed by Owens Corning for military missile applications.  Compared to E-Glass, S-2 Glass has much greater tensile strength, flexural strength, flexural modulus, and compressive strength. S-2 Glass laminates also exhibit improved impact resistance, toughness, a high-service temperature, and reduced weight.
