Non-fraying, non-shifting glass cloth.
Glass cloth with reduced fraying during cutting, misalignment, and shifting during layering. Improved production efficiency and work environment can be expected.
Glass cloth is often used in applications such as cutting and laminating during molding processes. However, fraying at the edges of the cut cloth, misalignment between the layers of laminated cloth, and the potential for quality defects and fiber debris can worsen the working environment. Currently, methods such as applying liquid resin during pretreatment or laminating with hot melt sheets are being used, but both approaches are cumbersome. Additionally, since the resin adheres to the entire surface, there is a risk of hindering the permeability of the matrix resin. Nitto Boseki has developed a glass cloth (Glass Cloth DOT) that addresses the above issues, requiring no preparation in the molding process, preventing fraying during cutting, avoiding misalignment during lamination, and can be used directly for the molding of preforms. It is flexible and allows for good permeability of the matrix resin.
