Textile chopped strands

Vetrotex hybrid yarns are made of commingled strands of glass and polypropylene (PP) or Polyamide (PA) filaments being suitable for various textile technologies.

Staple fiber products consist of discontinuous C-Glass filaments that are brought together to form a sliver. The structure of the sliver is fixed by adding a size, allowing further textile processes such as weaving, braiding, gasket/insulation manufacturing, or chopping.

Products dedicated to filtration are bonded together with a minimum amount of lubrication and have a higher surface area, which is ideal as a medium for gas, dust, and aerosol separation. Vetrotex manufactures a wide range of staple fibers ranging from 7 µm to 25 µm, perfect for use as a filtration medium in the mist elimination process.

C-glass staple fiber yarn offers a greater surface area for liquid filtration. It is ideally designed for use as a filtration medium in string wound cartridge filters used in aggressive chemical environments and high-temperature applications.

Vetrotex ZeroTwist® splice free single end roving is made of strands without twist and is sustainable for use in various textile technologies.

Key properties of the Vetrotex ZeroTwist® single end roving are:

• Splice free single end roving, free of catenary with strand integrity given by the size.
• Good warping and weaving properties in both warp (machine) and fill (crosswise) direction even with leno woven fabrics.
• Easy to impregnate due to the lack of twist.
• TD22C has excellent compatibility with epoxy, polyester, vinyl ester and phenolic resins.
• Very good surface coverage due to flat strand shape.

Made in collaboration with patented Fibrecoat Technology.

Bi-component multifilament strands with a glass core and aluminum shealth using FIBRECOAT technology. This innovative fibre is providing high stiffness and tensile strength and combining metal properties for high electrical and thermal conductivity.

These new fibres will be offered as chopped fibres compatible with polymer and nonwoven processing and as roving for textile processing (e.g., weaving, knitting, non-crimp fabrics, narrow fabrics or even braiding)
