Application characteristics of epoxy glass fiber tube

Application characteristics of epoxy glass fiber tube:

1. Various methods. Various resins, curing agents, and modifier systems can simply adapt to the requirements of various applications, and their scale can range from extremely low viscosity to high melting point solids.

2. Convenient curing. Using various curing agents, the epoxy resin system can be cured within a temperature range of 0~180℃.

3. Strong adhesion. The existence of polar hydroxyl and ether bond [1] inherent in the molecular chain of epoxy resin makes it have high adhesion to various substances. The shortening of epoxy resin is low when curing, and the internal stress generated is small, which also helps to improve the adhesion strength.

4. Low shortening. The reaction between the epoxy resin and the curing agent used is carried out by direct addition reaction or ring-opening polymerization reaction of epoxy groups in the resin molecule, and no water or other volatile by-products are released. Compared with unsaturated polyester resins and phenolic resins, they show very low shortening (less than 2%) during the curing process.

  1. Mechanical function. The cured epoxy resin system has excellent mechanical functions.
