Glass Composite Materials
Glass composite insulation materials are engineered to provide high electrical, mechanical and thermal performance in demanding power and industrial applications. Resins systems formulated to work with glass fiber re-enforcements provide materials capable of reliable performance in applications where customary insulation materials fail. ACC Insulations manufactures glass composite insulation products for the transformer, switchgear and heavy electrical equipment industries.
What Are Glass Composite Insulation Materials?
It is a composite that is produced by sticking fiberglass (glass fiber) to either epoxy or polyester resin and forms a substance that would provide high tensile strength, good insulation, and consistent protection against moisture, chemicals, and heat.
