Macro Synthetic Polypropylene Fibre

Macro

Macro Synthetic Polypropylene Fibre

This fibre is made of 100% virgin Polypropylene which is an engineered thermoplastic polymer, characterised by durability, flexibility and resistance to heat and acids. Macro fibre is suitable for engineering structural applications, such as municipal road bricks, floors, tunnel shotcrete, mining tunnels, precast segments, water conservancy and hydropower engineering, etc. They are used to prevent concrete cracking, improve impact toughness, fatigue resistance, and enhance concrete durability, waterproofing, fire resistance, and explosion-proof functions, and can be used in corrosive environments.

Polyoxymethylene

Polyoxymethylene Fibre

Polyoxymethylene

Polyoxymethylene Fibre

This fibre is made of Polyoxymethylene, a thermoplastic characterised by high strength, hardness and rigidity to −40 °C. This fibre has undergone special surface treatment and has excellent dispersibility. It has good bonding performance with cement-based materials and can effectively suppress microcracks. It is particularly suitable for high-strength concrete and ultra-high performance concrete, significantly improving the flexural strength, crack resistance, impact wear resistance, and fire and explosion resistance of the matrix.

Polyvinyl Alcohol

Polyvinyl Alcohol Fibre

Polyvinyl Alcohol

Polyvinyl Alcohol Fibre

This fibre is made of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) PVA fibre is a synthetic fibre produced from PVOH resin as raw material. It has characteristics such as high strength, high modulus, low elongation, alkali resistance, weather resistance, and hydrophilicity. It has good affinity and binding with substrates such as cement and gypsum, and is non-toxic, pollution-free, and does not harm human skin. It is harmless to the human body and is one of the new generation of green building materials. This product can replace asbestos as a reinforcement and crack prevention material for cement and concrete. This fibre is very suitable for Engineered Cementitious Composites(ECC)
