PRODUCT INFORMATION Vf> agy High Strength Solutions To Your Toughest Reinforcement Challenges AGY offers a combination of six vital enhanced properties critical for your demanding applications: strength, impact resistance, stiffness, temperature resistance, fatigue resistance and radar transparency. Compared to conventional glass fiber, the enhanced properties of S-2 Glass fibers result in better weight performance. And when compared to aramid and carbon, the enhanced properties of S-2 Glass fibers deliver better cost performance. S-2 Glass Features Benefits S-2 Glass fiber offers significantly more strength than Consistent high performance for reliable and durable conventional glass fiber. 85% more tensile strength in finished parts. resin-impregnated strands. Better fiber toughness, modulus of resistance and impact Improved impact capabilities to finished parts and higher deformation than conventional glass fiber. composite durability and damage tolerance. Enhanced stiffness. Delivers 25% more linear-elastic stiffness than conventional glass fiber. Excellent tolerance to damage accumulation. The ability of composite parts to withstand high levels of tension and flexural fatigue without catastrophic failure. ZenTron® Features Efficient processing Easier hybridization Quick wet-out Benefits ZenTron fiber has a catenary-free, single-end roving which can translate into more efficient processing for composites that are pultruded, filament wound or molded from fabrics and braids. This results in a more uniform fiber alignment than traditional multi-end rovings. The single-end construction makes it easier to hybridize with aramids and carbon tows. Designed to optimize wet-out in epoxy "kiss roll” and resin bath processes. Wets out at least 50% faster than conventional multi-end rovings. Minimal fiber breakage can reduce fuzz during handling.
