Improved cut-through resistance,
increased continuous use temperature, abrasion
resistance, and mechanical toughness are all features
of this product range.
Titanate Fiber Compounds can increase mechanical
strength while gaining chemical inertness and
excellent cryogenic impact resistance.
They can
also be used as an antistatic coating on FEP or
PTFE-impregnated glass cloth or as a resistance
carrier for heating bands.
