Glass
fiber and glass beads formulations are typically used
for injection molding processes where improved
dimensional stability is required.
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.
