Description: Film Former for Glass Fiber Sizes General Information: COIM has developed a range of polyesters for the treatment of glass fiber. These polyesters come in powder and emulsion form and are collectively known as FILCO®. The products in the FILCO® line serve to size glass fiber, to optimize the mechanical characteristics of the fiber, or to bind the fibers for the production of mat. Typical Physical and Chemical Characteristics: Filco 358 is an unsaturated polyester resin easily dispersible in water. Characteristics of the dried film:- clear
- non tacky
- compatible with unsaturated polyesters and other thermosets
- highly crosslinked
- low yellowing at high temperature
- insoluble in styrene
Applications: Filco 358 is suggested as a film former for continuous filament mat with low solubility. Information provided by P.A.T. Products, Inc. |
