Stitch chopped Strand mat with Polyester Veil

Stitch Chopped Strand Mat with Polyester Veil (SCSM with Veil) is a specialized reinforcement material that combines chopped glass fibers with a polyester veil. This design not only provides the conventional reinforcement benefits but also enhances surface properties such as improved smoothness, reduced fiber exposure, and better corrosion and weather resistance. It is typically used in resin impregnation processes such as hand lay-up, vacuum bagging, and injection molding.

Features:

    Enhanced Surface Smoothness:The addition of the polyester veil results in a smoother surface for composite materials, reducing glass fiber exposure. This is particularly important for applications requiring smooth, defect-free surfaces, such as ship hulls or building facades.

    Improved Corrosion Resistance:The polyester veil provides a level of water resistance, effectively preventing resin from penetrating the surface of the glass fibers, thereby improving the corrosion resistance of the composite material. This is especially beneficial in harsh environments such as chemical exposure or seawater.

    Better Aesthetic Quality:The polyester veil not only improves surface smoothness but also reduces fiber visibility, preventing glass fiber tips from protruding. This is crucial for products that require an aesthetically pleasing appearance, such as high-end automotive exterior parts or appliance housings.

    Improved UV Resistance:The polyester fiber veil enhances the UV resistance of the composite material, helping to protect the surface from UV degradation. This property is vital for outdoor applications like building facades and marine products, extending the lifespan of the material.

    Maintains Good Resin Absorption:Like traditional nonwoven reinforcement materials, SCSM with Veil still retains good resin absorption capacity, allowing for quick resin impregnation and thus improving production efficiency.

    Good Mechanical Properties:With the combination of glass fibers and the polyester veil, SCSM with Veil offers good impact resistance, fatigue resistance, and higher strength, making it suitable for applications requiring durability and high strength.

Applications:

    Marine and Offshore Engineering:The polyester veil enhances the corrosion resistance of composite materials, making SCSM with Veil widely used in shipbuilding and marine applications. It offers better surface smoothness and durability, reducing the impact of seawater and salt exposure on the material.

    Automotive Industry:In the automotive sector, SCSM with Veil is used for manufacturing body panels, interior components, and exterior parts. Its aesthetic appeal, UV resistance, and improved corrosion resistance make it an excellent choice for enhancing the exterior durability and lifespan of vehicles.

    Construction and Infrastructure:In construction, SCSM with Veil is commonly used for exterior walls, roofing panels, and decorative facades. Its excellent surface finish and UV resistance make it suitable for long-term exposure in outdoor environments.

    Wind Power:The wind power industry also extensively uses this material, especially in the production of wind turbine blades. SCSM with Veil improves the smoothness of the blade surface and helps reduce UV damage, thus extending the service life of the blades.

    Piping and Containers:SCSM with Veil is valuable for applications like chemical pipelines and oil and gas containers, where its corrosion resistance is crucial. It helps provide long-term durability and resistance in harsh environments.

    Appliances and Consumer Electronics:This material is also used in the production of appliance housings and consumer electronics, especially where a high-quality surface finish and excellent corrosion resistance are needed, such as in TV casings, refrigerators, and other household electronics.

Packaging Specifications:

    Rolls:The most common packaging form is in rolls, with each roll typically weighing between 25 kg and 50 kg. The standard roll width is usually 1 meter or 1.2 meters, and the roll length can be customized based on customer requirements, usually ranging from several hundred meters to several thousand meters. Roll packaging is ideal for high-volume production.

    Sheets:For small-batch production or customized needs, SCSM with Veil can be cut into specific sizes and packaged in sheets. The number of sheets and dimensions can be customized according to the customer's mold and production needs.

    Special Packaging:For specific storage and transportation requirements, SCSM with Veil can be packaged with protective materials like waterproof plastic film, cardboard boxes, or wooden pallets to prevent moisture and damage during storage and transport.

    Length and Width:The standard width is typically 1 meter or 1.2 meters, with the length customizable according to customer needs. Roll lengths usually range from 100 meters to 2000 meters, but specific lengths can be adjusted based on production and application requirements.
