C.O.I.M. FILCO® 368 Film Former for Glass Fiber Sizes

Description: Film Former for Glass Fiber SizesGeneral Information: COIM has developed a range of polyesters for the treatment of glass fiber. These polyesters come in powder and emulsion form and are collectively known as FILCO®. The products in the FILCO® line serve to size glass fiber, to optimize the mechanical characteristics of the fiber, or to bind the fibers for the production of mat.Typical Physical and Chemical Characteristics: Filco 368 is a saturated plasticizing polyester resin in non ionic water emulsionsaturated polyester resin with medium-low molecular weightnon ionic emulsionnarrow particle size distributionexcellent compatibility with both polyester resin and PVAC emulsionIn addition to sizes based on polyester and on PVAC emulsion Filco 368 gives a dried film that is softer and very quickly soluble in styrene.Applications: Filco 368 is suggested as a film former for glass fiber sizes for:plasticizer for sizes based on polyester and PVAC emulsion resinsplasticizer for PVAC emulsion binder for glass matsA slight synaeresis may occur during storage. Therefore, Filco 368 should be thoroughly stirred before use, until complete homogenization is obtained.Information provided by P.A.T. Products, Inc.
