2. High temperature fabrics are
resistant to up to 2500°C.
These fabrics are mainly
used for the manufacture of
thermal protections and
protective clothing, for the
insulation of piping or as a
barrier or fire blanket. Of
varying widths and
thicknesses, some fabric
references can be coated to
improve their thermal and
mechanical properties.
3. The sizing protects fiber from fraying/breaking
during handling at initial manufacture and
during downstream processing, such as
weaving, and it ensures adhesion at the critical
fiber/resin interface. Source: Owens Corning
