E-Glass Fibers – Standard Chemicals International

E-Glass Fibers

  • E-Glass Fibers are reinforcing fibers commonly used in concrete and dry-mix systems to improve the flexural and tensile strength of the concrete. E-Glass Fibers can help prevent cracking and improve the concrete’s overall durability and performance. They are made from a type of glass called “E-Glass,” alkali-free borosilicate glass. E-Glass Fibers are highly durable and resistant to chemical corrosion, making them an excellent choice for concrete and dry-mix systems.

    There are several benefits of using E-Glass Fibers in concrete and dry-mix systems compared to other types of fibers such as AR Glass Fibers, PP, PAN, and other fibers:

    • High strength and durability: E-Glass Fibers have high tensile strength and modulus, which means they can withstand much stress before breaking. This makes them ideal for use in concrete and dry-mix systems where strength and durability are crucial.
    • Chemical resistance: E-Glass Fibers are highly resistant to chemical corrosion, which means they can withstand exposure to a wide range of chemicals without degrading. This makes them an excellent choice for use in harsh environments where other fibers may also not hold up.
    • Thermal stability: E-Glass Fibers have a high melting point and are highly resistant to thermal shock. This makes them an excellent choice for use in applications with high temperatures, such as fire-resistant construction.
    • Cost-effective: E-Glass Fibers are relatively inexpensive compared to other reinforcing fibers, making them a cost-effective choice for use in concrete and dry-mix systems.

    In comparison, AR Glass Fibers have a higher tensile strength but are not as resistant to chemical corrosion as E-Glass Fibers. PP and PAN Fibers have a lower tensile strength and are not as durable as E-Glass Fibers, and they are not suitable for use in high-temperature environments. Therefore, E-Glass Fibers are preferred for many concrete and dry-mix applications due to their strength, durability, chemical resistance, and cost-effectiveness.
