What are the five characteristics of high temperature resistant glass fiber pipe?
1. Safety and environmental protection, protect workers’ health
The high temperature resistant fiberglass tube has strong tensile strength, no wrinkle, anti-vulcanization, no smoke, no halogen, no poison, pure oxygen, non-flammable, good insulation performance. After curing with silicone, its safety and environmental performance can be further improved. Effectively protect the human health of workers and reduce the occurrence of occupational diseases. Unlike asbestos products, it is extremely harmful to humans and the environment.
2. Excellent temperature resistance
The surface of the high temperature resistant glass fiber tube contains both “organic groups” and “inorganic structures”. This special composition and molecular structure allows it to combine the properties of organic matter with the function of inorganic matter. Compared with other polymer materials, it stands out for its high temperature resistance. The silicon-oxygen (Si-O) bond is the main chain structure, the bond energy of the CC bond is 82.6 kcal/g in the silicone resin, and the bond energy of the Si-O bond is 121 kcal/g, so the thermal stability is high, and the The chemical bonds of molecules do not break or disintegrate under high temperature (or radiation exposure). Silicone is not only resistant to high temperature but also low temperature, and can be used in a wide temperature range. It does not change with temperature, either in chemical or physical-mechanical properties.
3. Anti-splash, multiple protection
In the smelting industry, the temperature of the medium in the electric furnace is extremely high, and it is easy to form high-temperature spatter (such as in the electric welding industry). After cooling and solidifying, slag forms on the pipe or cable, which hardens the rubber on the outer layer of the pipe or cable and eventually causes brittle fracture. In turn, unprotected equipment and cables can be damaged. Multiple safety protections can be achieved by using multiple silicone-coated fiberglass sleeves. The maximum high temperature resistance can reach 1300 degrees Celsius, which can effectively prevent the high temperature melting of molten iron, copper and aluminum. splash water to avoid damage to surrounding cables and equipment.
4. Heat insulation, energy saving, anti-radiation
In a high temperature workshop, many pipes, valves or equipment have high internal temperatures. Burns or heat loss may result if not covered with protective material. High temperature resistant fiberglass pipes have better thermal stability than other polymer materials, and are resistant to radiation and thermal insulation, which can prevent accidents, reduce energy consumption and prevent the heat of the medium in the pipe from being directly transferred to the surrounding area. The environment overheats the workshop, which saves cooling costs.
5. Moisture-proof, oil-proof, weather-proof, pollution-proof, prolong the service life of equipment
The high temperature resistant glass fiber tube has strong chemical stability. Silicone will not react with oil, water, acid and alkali etc. At a temperature of 260°C, it can be used for a long time without aging. The service life in the natural environment can reach several decades. In this case, it maximizes the protection of pipes, cables and equipment and greatly prolongs their use.
