Binder for preforming of glass fiber mat?

17 May 2016 1 7K Report

Hello, we are using low melt flow material in glass fiber for preforming. bur we are not getting good results with low melt flow. can anybody suggest which binder is good for chopped strand glass fiber mats without compromising the mechanical and flow properties.

Generally Poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVOH, PVA, or PVAl) a water-soluble synthetic polymer is the best binder for ceramics as well as glasses for physical property measurements. However, in dealing with high temperature thermal properties some other polymers may be used.
