Fiber Blends
Knowlton engineered composites provide lightweight, energy-saving structural integrity, increased thermal endurance, enhanced physical, electrical and chemical performance and abrasive resistance for specialty barriers, laminates and friction material.
We produce exotic media utilizing a host of diverse materials and fibers. Plus, with the capability to handle additional operations (i.e.: laminations, chemical treatments, etc.), we can meet exacting customer requirements quickly and cost-effectively. Some of the many blends we use to form wet-laid non-wovens; ceramic, carbon, cellulose and synthetic fibers.
Applications such as:
- High Temperature Resistance
- Excellent Thermal Expansion Properties
- Abrasion Resistance
- Excellent Stiffness to Weight Properties
- Rigidity
- Increased Hardness
- Reduced Wear
- Reduced Erosion
- Corrosion Resistance
- Low Oxidation
- No Moisture Absorption
