Application of glass fiber advantages and characteristics of glass fiber

Fiberglass profiles are economical and effective substitutes for traditional materials such as concrete, steel, aluminum and wood. Glass fiber has many advantages. This makes fiberglass an ideal choice for sustainable building in the future.

1、 Light weight

Glass fiber material has the same strength as steel, but its density is only one fourth of that of steel. Compared with aluminum, it can also reduce weight, because the density is 30% lower than aluminum.

The light weight of fiberglass means that a lot of weight can be saved on the finished product. In this way, we can achieve a more compact and lightweight design. It can greatly reduce the cost of transportation and installation.

It's light weight and easy to assemble by hand, so in many fast construction installation sites, glass fiber becomes the material.

2、 Corrosion resistance

Fiberglass profiles are resistant to corrosive chemicals and liquids. It can resist the erosion of acid, alkali, salt, seawater, untreated sewage, corrosive soil or groundwater and many chemical fluids. Glass pipe props are non-toxic, rust free, tasteless, no secondary pollution to water quality and no need for corrosion protection. Therefore, they are very suitable for wastewater treatment plants, swimming pools, cooling towers and buildings with corrosion risk.

3、 Glass fiber is easy to form, has good heat and sound insulation effect, and is resistant to high temperature and will not burn. It is an ideal substitute for building materials.

4、 Long service life. Glass fibers do not undergo weathering or deterioration like steel or wood. As a result, they have a long service life and require little or no maintenance. Greatly reduce operating costs.

5、 Electrical insulation performance.
