S-glass chopped strand, comprised of short S-glass fibers known for their exceptional tensile strength, is a high-performance reinforcement material.It is instrumental in reinforcing composite structures, such as aircraft components, automotive parts, and construction materials, contributing to enhanced durability and strength. Its versatility and high-performance features make S-glass chopped strand a crucial element in various applications requiring superior mechanical properties.
Feature:
High Strength and Stiffness:
S-glass fibers have better tensile strength and modulus (stiffness) compared to standard E-glass. This makes chopped strand made from S-glass suitable for applications that require higher load-bearing capacity.
Higher Impact Resistance:
S-glass chopped strands also provide enhanced resistance to impact and mechanical stress.
Good Heat Resistance:
S-glass can withstand higher temperatures, making it suitable for high-performance applications in industries like aerospace, automotive, and sports equipment.
Corrosion Resistance:
Like most glass fibers, S-glass chopped strands offer excellent resistance to corrosion and can perform well in harsh environments.
Application:
Automotive Industry:
Used in composite parts like bumpers, body panels, and interior components where high strength-to-weight ratios are important.
Aerospace:
For lightweight, strong parts in aircraft structures.
Sports Equipment:
S-glass is used in making components such as golf clubs, tennis rackets, and bicycle frames.
Marine:
Used in boat hulls and other marine applications, where strength and resistance to water absorption are crucial.
