Michelman is introducing a number of new fibre sizings to support advanced generations of engineered resin composites increasingly being used in automotive design and manufacturing applications. As lightweight composites replace more and more metal components, requirements for higher thermal resistance, hydrolysis resistance and mechanical performance are increasing.
Fibre sizing solutions that meet these challenges include Hydrosize U2-04, a water-based polyurethane dispersion that is compatible with polyamide resins, Hydrosize PA846, a water-based polyamide dispersion that is highly stable and offers excellent thermal resistance, FGLASS X91 EMA dispersion, a new film former that is compliant with the Commission Regulation (EU) n°10/2011 repealing directive 2002/72/EC and Hydrosize U9-01, a water-based, blocked isocyanate that enhances the reactivity of the interface between the fibre and the resin.
Michelman offers a full line of fibre sizings and lubricants.
