What is the material of FRP

FRP, when you first see the word, will it also worry, whether it is new glass or special steel.

FRP is our name for fiber reinforced plastic. It is a composite material. It is made of various resins. The glass is drawn into very fine fiber and the fiber is woven into products. It is widely used in construction, automotive, communication and other fields. 

Glass is a kind of material that is not strong and easy to be brittle, but its properties change when the glass is melted into a very fine glass fiber. The glass fiber is very fine and can be woven. cloth.

FRP is like reinforced concrete. Glass fiber is like a hard steel bar in concrete. Resin is like cement cement. Glass fiber and resin combine with both glass and steel. This is why this material is called FRP.

FRP has a low density, only about 1/4 of steel, but its strength is very high, it has good corrosion resistance, insulation, and simple process.

This is a property that other metals do not have, so in many fields, FRP has replaced metal materials, but at the same time it has the disadvantages of easy deformation and aging.

According to the material properties of FRP, the main manufacturing processes commonly used are winding forming, drawing forming, compression molding, and hand lay-up.
