My research requires me to treat glass fiber with a silane, I want to know if there's a good source for glass fiber that doesn't have silane sizing and/or has sizing that is easy to remove.
Glass fiber is available with starch based sizing which can be removed fairly easily. I am not to familiar with US based suppliers so cant recommend any specific products. It is difficult to handle without a sizing so its unlikely to be available uncoated. I would suggest doing the removal in-line with your coating process.
I would discuss with your glass supplier about suitable materials, their technical teams will be able to give you specific details on how to remove their sizings.

Glass fibre without sizing is not available for procurement. Glass fibre with any sizing can be bought and heated to 200 degree C (maximum) for 30 minutes to obtain sizing free glass fibre.
Charles Garzon, Hi,
have you been able to receive unsized glass fibres? If yes, can you please provide the supplier or company details? That would be helpful.
