Michelman Introduces New Fiber Sizings

摘要

Michelman is introducing a number of new fiber sizings to support advanced generations of engineered resin composites increasingly being used in automotive design and manufacturing applications. New fiber sizing solutions from Michelman that meet these challenges include Hydrosize U2-04, a water-based polyurethane dispersion that is compatible with polyamide resins, Hydrosize PA846, a water-based polyamide dispersion that is highly stable and offers excellent thermal resistance, FGLASS X91 EMA dispersion, a new film former that is compliant with the Commission Regulation (EU) n°10/2011 repealing directive 2002/72/EC, and Hydrosize U9-01, a water-based, blocked isocyanate that enhances the reactivity of the interface between the fiber and the resin.
