Uniconform®

Product catalog summary

Product Description
Uniconform® is a composite material made from Advantex® glass continuous strands with no binder or stitching yarn. It combines the properties of E-glass and E-CR glass, offering electrical, mechanical, and acid corrosion resistance. It is designed for injection molding, infusion, or wet compression and is compatible with various resins.

Product Reference
Each product is identified by a code, e.g., UM 600-125, where 'UM' stands for Uniconform®, '600' indicates the nominal weight per unit area in g/m², and '125' is the roll width in cm.

Features and Benefits

100% continuous glass fibers with no binder or synthetic core.
Translucent panel capabilities and good mechanical properties.
Adaptable to complex mold shapes and offers excellent fire retardant properties.
Easy to cut and splice with high Z permeability and wet out.

Visual Characteristics and Defects
Possible defects include coarse strands, clusters of fibers, water spots, dirt, and holes. A maximum of 5 defects per 100 lm of roll is allowed.

Technical Characteristics
Uniconform® is available in various surface weights ranging from 450 to 2400 g/m², with a medium solubility in styrene and moisture content below 0.15%.

Product Availability
Standard roll widths are 38 cm, with weights ranging from 450 to 2400 g/m². Roll dimensions and weights vary accordingly.

Packaging
Rolls are wound onto a cardboard tube and wrapped in stretch film. Pallets or wooden crates are used depending on roll width.

Storage
Store in original packaging at 15-35°C and 35-85% humidity. If stored below 15°C, condition the mat for 24 hours before use to prevent condensation.

PRODUCT INFORMATION Uniconform® 450, 600, 750, 900,1200, 1800, 2400 g/m² PRODUCT DESCRIPTION © Corentin Mossière (FR) Uniconform® is made of Advantex® glass continuous strands of random orientation without any binder or any stitching yarn. The Advantex® glass fiber combines the electrical and mechanical properties of traditional E-glass with the acid corrosion resistance of E-CR glass. It is a soft product with a high stretchability designed for injection molding, infusion or wet compression. The continuous strands have a sizing with a coupling agent that makes Uniconform® compatible with Unsaturated Polyester, Vinylester and Epoxy resins.
