1. COMPOSITION AND PRESENTATION
AR GLASSFIBRE CHOPPED STRAND is a high integrity AR glass fiber chopped strand designed for using in dry mix systems or other premixing processes for subsequent moulding into a GRC component. This kind of chopped strand has a sizing system optimized for abrasion resistance and strand integrity during blending with dry materials. The low- tex strand permits efficient reinforcement at low dosages.
2. PROPERTIES & APPLICATIONS.
Properties:
- Good liquidity and integrity
- Excellent alkali resistant and durability
- Have been approved by Sheffield University, UK.
Application:
1. It is particularly suited to the preparation of pre-bagged mixes of special mortars or renders.
2. It may also be used in the manufacture by precasting of standard GRC components.
Example: AR15-12mmL (H) AR: Alkali Resistant
15: Filament diameter
12mm: Strand length available
L: ZrO2 content 14.5%
H: ZrO2 content 16.7%
