Introduces FRF 114 Milled Mineral Wool Fibers
New high-performance
fiber ideal for plastics and friction parts
Thermafiber, Inc., has launched FRF 114,
the newest product in their line of performance mineral wool fibers.
 |
FRF 114 has been engineered as
an economical filler and reinforcement fiber for a host of
products. The highly refined fibers have excellent reinforcement
strength, superior heat and fire resistance, viscosity
modification and friction properties. Some of the applications
for FRF 114 include plastics, cements, friction products,
gaskets, caulks and adhesives.
"The FRF 114 product opens the door
to many new applications and markets that demand a very clean
fiber," says Michael Williams, Thermafiber’s Executive Vice
President. "We are excited about our new capabilities to
manufacture this fiber and the additional markets that we can
now service." |
Like all Thermafiber mineral wool
products, FRF 114 offers a very high recycled content of up to 85%. FRF
114 fibers are also available with water-absorbent and repellent surface
treatments. These milled fibers are easily poured and blended into
mixtures and batching systems.
