Property examples of various fibres

Polyethylene fibres are handicapped by their low melting temperature. They are used for antiballistic products. [Pg.801]

Polypropylene fibres are used to reinforce polypropylene matrices leading to a selfreinforcing polymer. [Pg.801]

PEI fibres are used for their resistance to fire in fire barriers for special bedding. [Pg.801]

They are used for their temperature resistance and fire behaviour. [Pg.801]

During manufacturing, the filaments are sized with organic materials. Later in the process it may be necessary to desize. [Pg.801]
