Glass Yarns

Taking into account technical and technological possibilities and the equipment our enterprise has the possibility to produce glass yarns from “E” glass with the linear density from 3.4 to 300 tex with the elementary fibre diameter from 4 to 11 mkm.

Glass yarns are applied for production of fabrics, tapes and meshes of different application (electric insulation, building, construction), as electrical insulation winding of wires and cables, starters and transformers; reinforcing filler of construction materials; in the form of cords and stockings.

Depending upon the application glass yarns are made on different types of emulsion in order to provide the best consumptiion and technological properties during their further processing.

The type of emulsion, tex, yarn structure (number of plies, twist value) can be chosen taking into account the customer’s requirements.

Packaging of yarn is made into carton boxes, which are placed on a pallet and wrapped by a film, preventing penetration of moisture. Net weight of yarn on a pallet is approximately 800 kg.

Rovings

Roving is non twisted strand, consisting of several complex yarns and is characterized by their quantity, tex and diameter of the elementary fibre.

If the roving consists of one complex yarn, it is called one-process (type RBO) or direct roving and is used the same as the other types. Glass plastic, in which roving is used as rein-forcement, is much cheaper and simpler in fabrication.

Our enterprise can produce rovings of the type RBO and RBT with the diameter of the elementary yarn from 10 to 13 mkm and tex from 240 to 2400 on the emulsions, providing inter-connection with resins of different types in fabrication of glass plastic products.

Depending upon its designation roving is divided into 3 groups:

Spray-up roving (type RBR) - in the chopped form it is used for manufacturing of mats (chop mat); premixes; glass plastics by method of spraying; reinforcement of polyamides, fibro concrete, gypsum.

Technical roving (type RBT) - is applied for manufacturing of woven materials as a sewing material of glass and mineral wool products.

Roving for winding (type RBN) - is applied for manufacturing of glass plastic products by the method of winding (obtaining of cylindrical surfaces) and pulling or pultrusion (obtaining of different profiles).

Chopped Fiber

Chopped fibre made of E-glass is manufactured with fibre diameter from 6 to 13 mkm and has a length 4,5-6-12 mm. Depending upon the application chopped fibre is manufactured on different types of size, agreed at the requirements of the customer.

One of the main directions of application of chopped fibre made of E-glass are: production of nonwoven materials: rigid and soft felts or construction mats of different densities and designation; - glass paper, glass veil, glass felt. - as reinforcing material in production of glass filled polymers, gypsum, friction parts.

Nonwoven materials in production of glass plastic replaced woven materials, as having less prime cost of production, best impregnation in processing by resins and less expenses, moulding of articles do not require application of expensive equipment.

Chopped fibre is packed into polyethylene bags 20 - 25 kg each, the bags are placed into a carton box with the total weight up to 1000 kg.

Electric Insulation materials

Electric insulation fabrics with the weight from 49 up to 230 g/sq.m are designed for production of foiled laminates from which one side, two sides and multilayer printed circuit boards are produced.

Thanks to the unique properties of electric insulation fabrics the materials on their basis have high mechanical and electric insulation properties, are easily subjected to mechanical treatment such as cutting, drilling and stamping.

As an additional service production of electric insulation fabrics with cut and glued edge "C+C" is possible. The fabric is applied for production of printed circuit boards of computers, domestic and industrial equipment.

Electric insulation glass fabrics with the weight from 49 up to 230 g/sq.m. are designed for production of non-foiled dielectrics. At the order of the client we produce electric insulation glass fabrics on textile size or finished.

As an additional service production of electric insulation fabrics with cut and glued edge "C+C" is possible.

High mechanical properties and electrical stability will allow to make mechanical treatment of the material and use it for construction details of electric equipment.

Glass fabrics for production of flexible insulation

Thin electric insulation glass fabrics are used for production of varnished glass fabrics, micanites and other micalike materials in flexible insulation. The given materials are produced on textile size or finished.

Hight Temperature Silica Materials

Silica materials have low thermal conductivity, high resistance to thermal shock, have superb electric insulation properties at high temperatures, can be used for a long period of time without changing of their properties at the temperature 1000 C (on new material PURESIL up to 1200 C) and for a short period of time at higher temperatures (do not melt, do not evaporate at the temperature up to 1700 C).

Articles made of silica glass are extremely inert to the majority of chemical reagents, resistant to organic and mineral acids of any concentration even at the elevated temperature (except of hydrofluoric, phosphoric and hydrochloric acid) and weak alkalies of molten metals (except of Mg, Na, Si) and alloys. They have high chemical resistance to water and steam of high pressure, are capable to absorb moisture, but are not split in the presence of water, stable in vacuum.

Construction and Insulation Materials

Construction glass fabrics are a type of glass fibre materials which are designed for producing of glass plastics as a reinforcing material.

Glass plastics on the basis of the woven materials in comparison with the glass plastics on the basis of non-woven materials have higher physical-mechanical properties and are used during manufacturing of critical parts and constructions.

Because of the fact that the given glass plastics have such properties as: high impact strength, temperature resistance, high tensile strength, corrosion resistance, antimagnetic properties, locality of destruction of the damaged area, high dielectric properties make their application irreplaceable in all the branches of industry in production of spare parts of the car bodies, yachts, launches, aircraft technique and their decorative elements, different constructions of any kind of profiles, protective covering, chemical tanks, apparatus, pipeworks and so on.

Construction glass fabrics are made of aluminoborosilicate glass (type E) with the surface density from 210 to 850 g/sq.m. with different weaving structure, either untreated or preliminary impregnated for the improved interaction with polyesters, epoxy, formaldehyde, epoxyphenolic and other types of resins.
