CHEMICALLY TREATED INORGANIC OXIDE FIBERS WITH THERMAL STABILITY SUITABLE FOR HIGH TEMPERATURE POLYMERS

摘要

Inorganic oxide substrates treated with an aqueous chemical treating composition having at least one organo alkoxide or hydroxide of a metal selected from titanium and zirconium either with a select combination of film forming polymers and/or with one or more organo-functional silane coupling agents. The combination of the titanium or zirconium coupling agent and the silane coupling agent can be as two distinct compounds.
