| Tire cord fabric is a type of industrial fabric which is constructed using High Tenacity yarns in the warp direction and yarns of negligible resistance in weft direction which is used to hold warn yarns locked in their position. Tire cord coated fabrics provides fundamental properties such as controlled deformation, high strength, abrasion resistance, etc. Widely used by the tire industry, it is also employed for the rubber hose manufacture, air springs, expansion joints, among many other applications. Polyester is a the synthetic fiber that detains the first place in terms of global production. It is a linear polymer whose mass comprises predominantly (at least 80%) of the ester functions and terephthalic acid. The polyester yarn is lightweight and flexible. It is resistant to ultraviolet radiation. Low flammability. It softens at 245 ° C and melts at 250 ° C. It keeps a good shape memory and can therefore beused into coated fabrics composition. Furthermore, a suitable weaving also allows good heat dissipation. Chlorosulphonated Polyethylene or CSM – also known as Hypalon® – is to be considered an improved chloroprene as it offers better chemical resistance, ozone and light resistance, heat ageing. Their particular resistance to weathering conditions and the excellent lowgas permeability presents CSM as the best option for the manufacture of premium quality inflatable boats and structures for all environments, but most of all in sea environment. Applications: Properties: - Heat resistant
- Fireproofed
- Acids resistance
- Abrasion resistance
- Non-skid
- UV resistance
- Water resistance
- Ozone Resistance
- Cold resistance
