CHM.......Composites
Product Applications
|
|
| Tank
and Pipe Manufacture
Our materials are used in this industry
for enhanced corrosion resistance and surface themoplastic
weled testing static dissipation. With
binders developed to be either soluble
or insoluble in the main resin systems,
our
|
| materials
are suitable for either hand lay-up or winding processes and
are designed to conform to the most complex bends corners
and contours. Binder selection also enhances fast wet out
and rapid de-airing. |
| Weldtex
is a conductive carbon fibre tape designed for “spark
testing” of thermoplastic welds in dual laminate tanks
and pipes.
A corrosion resistant or electrostatically dissipation
layer is often an essential component of fibre reinforced
plastic pipes and tanks. The CHM Chemitex
range is a series of carbon fibre veils designed specifically
for the chemical and petrochemical industries.
Industrial Applications
Carbon
fibre veils and mats, aramid and PBO veils and mats,
conductive veils and mats and veils and mats from blended
fibres are used in a wide range of industrial applications.
These include pultruded handrails, walkways, cable trays,
cable ladders etc., EMI shielding applications, composite
roll surfaces, honeycomb facing papers, circuit board reinforcement,
fuel cell components and thin film adhesive substrates.
Conductive Product Applications
Our conductive veils and mats use the electrically conductive
nature of carbon, metal coated carbon and metallic fibres
to achieve a range of levels of surface and bulk conductivity
in composite components.
Our products range from blends for surface static dissipation,
through EMI/RFI shielding to finely tuned radar signature
management.
Blends of carbon with non conductive fibres achieve optimum
properties of conductivity and cost. Highly conductive nickel
coated carbon imparts high levels of attenuation of electromagnetic
and radio frequency interferenc. AS9000 approved materials
are tailored to customer specifications for radar signature
management and low observable applications. Metal and metal
coated carbon fibres are used for bulk conductivity and
heat dissipation in lightning strike protection. Conductive
veils are also used for heating elements and de icing applications.
Sports Goods Applications
Carbon fibre veils and mats, aramid and PBO veils and mats,
and veils and mats from blended fibres can be used in a
range of sports goods applications. Fly rods, kayaks, skis,
bicycles and boats are just some of the sports equipment
using our products. Our materials improve aesthetics, impact
and wear resistance, interlaminar shear strength etc in
a variety of sporting applications.
