Fibreglass
Kaolin is one of the ingredients for manufacturing fibreglass. Kaolin is used in fibreglass as a filler and also enables strengthening of the fibres integrated into the material, It also improves the integration of fibres in products requiring strengthened plastics: cars, boats and marine products, sporting goods and recreation products, aviation and aerospace products, circuit board manufacturing, fibreglass insulation, fibreglass air filters, fibreglass tanks and pipes, corrosion resistant fibreglass products, fibreglass building and construction products. The concentration of kaolin in the binder is determined by the chemical nature of the fibre, its surface composition and properties, and the textile structure of the reinforcing system.
SMPL's product SMC-GLASS Optimizes the melting process and controls the heat exchange due to lower Fe values, hence reducing the process upsets in kaolin part of the formulation. So the product becomes highly suitable in E-Glass type fibreglass manufacturing too.
