I.  Define and purpose

Fiber glass is a kind ofinorganic non-ferrous material with remarkable properties. Its gravity is 1.8g/cm3, and its weight is aquarter of steel and two thirds of aluminum. However, its hardness is ten timesof that of hard PVC ( polyvinyl chloride). Therefore, its rigidity is muchgreater than aluminum, and reaches 1.7 times of that of normal steel.

Fiberglass rod is formed by pultrusion which is a continuous process for manufactureof glass fiber reinforced plastic with constant cross-section. With the aid offorming machine, the reinforcement materials such as fiber glass roving andcontinuous mat are impregnated with base materials like unsaturated polyesterresin, and pulled through a heated die where solidification happens. Then thefinal formation is done by consistent pulling force.

Therefore,this kind of thermosetting polymer is characterized by smooth surface,dimensional stability and prominent rigidity.

2. Characteristics

Advantages:

1.Light weight, highttensile strength and rigidity.

2.Outstanding chemicalresistance to atmosphere, water, acid, alkali and salt in normal concentration,as well as various oil and solvent oil.

3.High coefficient ofelasticity and good flexibility allowing for bending without breaking.

4. Impressive electrical insulationwithout electromagnetism and electric sparks, thus applicable for placessensitive to magnetism, or are electrically dangerous, flammable and explosive.

5. Excellent dimensionalstability and machinability.

6.Great resistance toaging and ultraviolet.

7. Superior impactresistance allowing for repeated bending without deforming.

8. Thermal resistance andfire retardant.

9. Lower coefficient ofthermal expansion than normal plastic materials.

10. Retaining considerablemechanical strength even at low temperature ranged from -50℃-200℃

3.Application

1. Structural materials for airline,construction engineering, military and sports supplies.

2. Bars and supportive sticks for framework,chemical engineering and waste water processing, as well as handrail inmanufacture equipment.

3. Applicable forkite production, archery parts, fan blade, wind turbine blade, umbrella pole,umbrella layering and tent pole etc.

4..Tool handles,mosquito net, lighting pole, cue, practice net for golf, flagpole, advertisementframe, switch and socket.

5. Aircraft:trailing edge, aerofoil, deflecting bar, framework component and transmissiongear etc.

6. Mast, suspender,loom and structural parts for water sports equipment.

7. Model airplane,aerofoil and all kinds of toys.
