GRAPEX-1000 - Glass fibre fabric with expanded graphite

RoHS REACH Compliant
View full details
Raw materials are not available for standalone purchase; instead, they are intended to be integrated into a tailor-made, custom-engineered solution.

Glass fabric reinforced with stainless steel threads and equipped with flame retardant based on expanded graphite. When exposed to heat above 180°C, the expanded graphite expands irreversibly (intumescence) and removes oxygen from the flame, thereby slowing the spread of the flame. Typical application as flame retardant in truck and bus components.

Specifications

  • Basis weight:1000 +/-15% g / m²
  • Thickness:0.97 +/-15%mm
