Product catalog summary
Material Overview: Zoltek's Panex® 35 Chopped Fiber (Type -45) is designed for use in engineering thermoplastics such as PC, PA, POM, and PBT/PET. It is recommended for applications requiring RFI/EMI shielding, wear resistance, and weight reduction in automotive components.
Fiber Properties: The fiber has a sizing content of 2.75% by weight, a maximum moisture content of 0.20%, and an unpacked bulk density of 425 g/L (26.5 lb/ft3). The nominal fiber length is 6 mm (0.25 in).
Description: The Type-45 chopped fiber format offers high bulk density for cleaner flow rates, maintains integrity through processing, and distributes easily during compounding. It provides excellent mechanical and electrical properties, including high strength, low density, electrical conductivity, dimensional stability, low thermal expansion, and excellent friction/wear properties.
Certifications: The product is certified under ISO 9001 and AS9100 standards by Bureau Veritas. A Certificate of Conformance is provided with each shipment.
Packaging: Each pallet contains 45 boxes, with a net weight of 1,800 lb (816 kg). Each box measures 14.5” x 14.5” x 14.5” and contains 40 lbs (18.1 kg) of fiber. The fiber is also available in 500 lb (227 kg) super sacks.
Safety: Users are advised to obtain and understand the Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) before using the product.
