Non-reinforced applications

A medium reactive isophthalic/NPG base resin suitable for non-reinforced applications and sheeting. 

Medium reactive orthophthalic/NPG base resin system, suitable for non-reinforced applications like handmade polyester concrete. 

Medium reactive, resilient, modified isophthalic base resin for non-reinforced applications. 

Note Thermosets are also used in non-fiber-reinforced applications such as gel coats and cast polymer. 

In Figure 2 we can observe the variations of tensile strain versus number of cycle for failure. As it can be seen, waste tire reinforeement ean decrease the tensile strain in contrast to non- reinforced sample. In certain bitumen percent, the tensile strain in reinforced sample is less than the tensile strain in non- reinforced specimen. It can be seen that the number of cycle for failure in reinforced sample is more than non - reinforeed sample. Therefore, the reduction in fatigue cracks in reinforced specimen is expected. In samples with 5 and 6 percents of bitumen, the number of cycles for failure is increased signifieantly. It should be noted that with 5 percent of bitumen the application of waste rubber ean cause a better cohesion between aggregates and bitumen. While using 4% bitumen the difference between tensile strain in reinforced specimen and non- reinforced sample is poor. This is because of percent reduction in the bitumen quantity. However, for 5 percent bitumen this difference is noticeable. Although the bitumen percent used is not optimum, therefore, the waste rubber reinforcement, lead to the decrease in tensile strain in contrast to non - reinforced sample. The result has shown in Figure 2. 

Defining the area of measurement is important for accurate corrosion rate measurement. In other (non-reinforced concrete) applications linear polarization is carried out on a sample of known size in a pipe or tank or... 

The inherent strength and resilience properties simplify the matching of the rubber to the application. Where optimum elastic properties are required, the rubber can be used in essentially unfilled (gum) vulcanizate form. If fillers are required non-reinforcing types can often be used, instead of the reinforcing fillers that are essential for low-strength rubbers. 

The significance of the bond coefficient for geotextiles in reinforcement applications is that the higher the the shorter the required bond length, and comparisons have been pubhshed for various textiles including woven flat-slit tape and multifilament, heavy needle-punched non-wovens, and geogrids. ...

China clay is a widely used white filler in the rubber industry. Depending on particle size, it can be used as a semi-reinforcing filler (hard clay) or a non-reinforcing filler (soft clay) in such applications as chemical liners, bicycle tyres, conveyor belts, shoe soles, gaskets and flooring. Its use in plastics is much more limited. In thermoplastics it is used for speciality antiblocking, in thermosets it is used in urea-, phenol- and melamine formaldehyde, in unsaturated polyesters, and in epoxy resins. 

Carbon-carbon refers to a composite comprising a carbon-fiber reinforcement and a carbon matrix, in other words an all-carbon material. Carbon-carbon was developed in the early 1960 s in various programs sponsored by the United States Air Force.P Some of the early applications of carbon-carbon were in nose tips and heat shields of reentry vehicles.l l[ °l Carbon-carbon is now a major structural material, not only in aerospace, but also in many non-military applications. 

Non-reinforced inflatable seals are homogenized seals manufactured only from rubber without any reinforcement but having thicker wall sections. These inflatable seals can be used for a variety of applications where sealing two surfaces that move in relation to each other is required. By introducing a medium such as air or fluid, the seal will expand at a specified rate until a determined size is achieved. The rates and sizes of expansion of an inflatable seal are determined by its shape (Figure 3.8). Nearly all inflatable seals, reinforced or non-reinforced, are custom fabricated for a specific application. 

The form the RP takes, as with non-reinforced plastics, is determined by the product requirements. It has no inherent form of its own it must be shaped. This provides an opportunity to select the most efficient forms for the application. Shape ean help to overcome limitations that may exist in using a lower-cost material with low stififiiess. As an example underground fuel tanks can include ribs to provide added strength and stiffness to the RP orientation in order to meet required stresses at the lowest produetion cost.
