S-3 UHM? High Performance Fibers

Product catalog summary
Introduction
AGY Advanced Materials introduces S-3 UHM™ High Performance Fibers, which are designed to offer the highest stiffness in glass fibers. These fibers are developed using AGY’s Modular Direct Melt (MDM) production technology and a proprietary formulation of S-Glass raw materials.
Features and Benefits
  • S-3 UHM™ fibers have the highest tensile modulus available in glass fibers at 99 GPa (14,359 ksi), which is approximately 40% higher than E-Glass.
  • The fibers are non-conductive, have high impact performance, low coloration, high temperature resistance, and low moisture absorption.
  • A variety of sizing chemistries are available, including epoxy, polyester, and thermoplastic resins.
  • The fibers are boron-free and environmentally friendly.
Product Applications
S-3 UHM™ fibers are suitable for high stiffness applications across various markets, including healthcare and electronics.
Physical Properties
The document provides a detailed comparison of physical properties such as tensile strength, tensile modulus, bulk glass density, and softening point for S-3 UHM™, S-2 Glass®, S-1 HM™, and E-Glass.
