|
| A
corrosion resistant layer is an essential component of fibre
reinforced plastic pipes and tanks used in the water transportation
and sewage treatment industries, the chemical and petrochemical
industries, for flue gas desulphurisation and for scrubbing
systems for incinerator plants.
|
|
The corrosion layer generally comprises of an inner liner
of corrosion resistant resin backed up by a corrosion barrier
of resin reinforced with chopped strand mat. The thickness
of the inner liner is closely controlled to between 0.3
and 0.5mm by incorporating a low fibre volume fraction surfacing
veil, usually of C glass. |
For
some specialised applications the C glass veil should be replaced
by carbon veil. Carbon fibre veils are used to give:-
• ultimate
corrosion resistance in the most aggressively corrosive
environments, such as hot acidic conditions
• surface conductivity for dissipation of static
charges and reduced risk of explosion
CHM Chemitex
is a series of carbon fibre veils designed specifically
for the chemical and petrochemical industries. Available
in base weights of 17 and 34g/m2 and with either styrene
soluble or styrene insoluble binders, Chemitex is supplied
in either full width (900mm) for hand lay-up or in coils
pre slit to 100mm for winding applications.
