Our broad portfolio of Chopped Strands Glass Fibers offers ideal solutions for compound applications including PA, PBT, PP and many more. Chopped Strands Glass Fibers enhance strength and stiffness while maintaining a high level of impact strength.
Moreover, Envalior also offers special Milled Fibers for reinforcement of PTFE, PU, elastomers, coatings and epoxy resins. Milled Fibers enhance dimensional stability and stiffness, while minimizing the effects of warpage.
Envalior‘s world scale glass fiber plant in Antwerp is one of Europeans‘ biggest Chopped Strands plant, making Envalior a leading supplier for the engineering plastics industry.
Our range of glass fibers comprises a broad spectrum of grades which differ with respect to the type of size used, and their form (i.e. fiber diameter, strand length, etc.).
Envalior's glass fibers for the reinforcement of thermoplastics, polyurethanes and thermosets are supplied in the forms of Chopped Strands (CS) and Milled Fibers (MF).
Envalior also offers recycled ISCC Plus certified Glass Fibers.
For sealing applications in the chemical industry, Milled Fiber in elastomeric seals and gaskets offers, with its reinforcing properties, a high level of flexibility and improved chemical properties.
The classic application for Milled Fiber is polyamide compounding for the automotive and household goods industry. Apart from the reinforcing properties of Milled Fiber, the short fiber lengths also result in outstanding surfaces of the molded part and has a positive influence on flame retardance.
PTFE compounds are used to manufacture various vehicle components such as gear assemblies, seals and bearings. Milled Fiber can help to optimize the heat resistance of the components and meet the stringent demands on friction and wear resistance.
In the reinforced reaction injection molding process, plastics parts such as bumpers, fenders, side members and spoilers are made of polyurethane (PU). To improve the mechanical properties, Milled Fibers are added to the PU systems. Owing to their short and narrow length distribution, Milled Fibers provide an ideal means of minimizing shrinkage behavior.
