Applications >Automotive & Transports > Recycled textile felts


Better homogeneity of impregnation thanks to Fibroline leads to better mechanical performances, thus to weight and material costs savings.

Fibroline superiority:


- Possibility to impregnate in a dry way felts thanks to the use of fine powders.
- Fibroline process can lead to raw material and energy savings, and to innovative products

The Fibroline process avoids the use of liquid resins in the car industry.


 

Nonwoven:

Recycled fibres (cotton, acrylic, etc)

Weight: 85 to 90%.

Powder:

- Phenolic
- Epoxy
- Polyester
- Vinylester…

Weight: 10 to 15%

Physical properties:

- Acoustic absorption properties
- Thermal absorption properties
- Resilience
- Low density
- Low cost materials


 

 

 
 

Advantages:

- High mechanical properties (depending on the powder content) because of the better distribution of the resin.
- No VOC released during processing thanks to replacement of liquid resin by powder (dry process)
- Possibility to obtain a dry prepreg : nonwoven impregnated, but not cured (binder only thermofixed, material ready to be moulded)

 
  Applications:

- Automotive industry (phonic insulation…)
- Building industry
- Furniture
