Fiberglass composite board is a type of board composed of glass fibers and other materials. The following is an introduction to it:
1. Composition and Structure of Fiberglass composite board
-The main component is glass fiber, which is an inorganic non-metallic material with high strength, high temperature resistance, electrical insulation and other characteristics. Usually combined with resins such as epoxy resin, polyester resin, etc., the resin plays a role in bonding glass fibers and endowing the board with certain flexibility and plasticity.
-Some glass fiber composite boards also add other auxiliary materials, such as fillers (calcium carbonate, aluminum hydroxide, etc.), to enhance certain properties of the board, such as increasing hardness and improving flame retardancy; Or add pigments to change the color of the board.
2. Performance characteristics of Fiberglass composite board
-Mechanical performance: It has high strength and stiffness, can withstand significant pressure and tension, and is not easily deformed. The reinforcing effect of glass fiber makes the impact resistance of composite panels relatively good. When subjected to external impact, they are less likely to be damaged compared to single material panels.
-Electrical insulation performance: As glass fiber itself is a good electrical insulator, glass fiber composite panels also have excellent electrical insulation properties and can be used for the production of insulation components for electrical equipment.
-Heat resistance: able to maintain stable performance in a certain degree of high temperature environment. The high temperature resistance of glass fiber enables composite panels to withstand higher temperatures, and different resin systems can affect their specific heat resistance temperature. Generally speaking, their heat resistance is better than ordinary plastic sheets.
-Corrosion resistance: It has good resistance to many chemicals, especially in corrosive environments such as acid and alkali resistance, and is suitable for some chemical industry environments or outdoor environments with corrosion risks.
3. Application Fields of Fiberglass composite board
-Construction industry: Used for external wall insulation, thermal insulation, and sound insulation systems of buildings. As an external wall insulation board, it can effectively reduce the transfer of indoor and outdoor heat and improve the energy efficiency of buildings; In terms of sound insulation, it can effectively block external noise from entering the room. It can also be used as a roofing material in buildings to enhance the waterproof, insulation, and strength performance of the roof.
-In the field of transportation: used in automobile manufacturing for body parts, interior panels, etc. Its high strength and lightweight characteristics help reduce the weight of the vehicle while providing good mechanical protection. In shipbuilding, it can be used for ship structure, deck, and interior, utilizing its water and corrosion resistance to improve the service life and comfort of ships.
-In the field of electronics and electrical engineering: manufacturing casings for electronic devices, substrates for circuit boards, etc. Due to its excellent electrical insulation and mechanical properties, it can provide stable structural support and electrical protection for electronic devices.
-In the industrial field, it serves as a protective board and operating platform for industrial equipment. In some industrial workshops with chemical corrosion risks, fiberglass composite panels can resist the erosion of chemical substances; In the machining workshop, it can serve as a reliable operating platform with high strength.
-Sports and leisure field: used for manufacturing sports equipment such as surfboards, skis, etc. These devices require materials with high strength and toughness, and fiberglass composite panels precisely meet these requirements
