What are the uses of high-strength glass fiber?

The use of fiberglass: A glass rope twisted with fiberglass can be said to be "very good in the rope." A glass rope as thick as a finger can even lift a truck full of goods! Due to its resistance to seawater corrosion and rust, glass ropes are suitable for use as ship cables and crane hoisting ropes. Although synthetic fiber ropes are strong, they will melt at high temperatures, while glass ropes are not afraid. Therefore, using glass ropes is particularly safe for rescuers
Glass fiber can be processed to weave various types of glass fabrics - glass cloth. Glass cloth is not afraid of acid or alkali, so it is ideal as a filter cloth for chemical factories. In recent years, many factories have adopted glass cloth instead of cotton cloth and burlap cloth to make packaging bags. This type of bag is not moldy or rotten, moisture-proof or corrosion-resistant, durable, and popular, and can also save a lot of cotton and linen. A large piece of glass with exquisite patterns is pasted on the wall with adhesive, which is beautiful and generous, eliminating the need for painting and maintenance. If it gets dirty, just wipe it with a cloth, the wall will immediately become clean
Fiberglass is both insulating and heat-resistant, making it an excellent insulation material. Currently, most motor and electrical factories in China have extensively used fiberglass as insulation material. A 6000 kilowatt steam turbine generator has over 1800 insulated components made of fiberglass! Due to the use of fiberglass as insulation material, the performance of the motor has been improved, the volume of the motor has been reduced, and the cost of the motor has been reduced. It is truly a win-win situation
Another important use of fiberglass is to collaborate with plastics to manufacture various fiberglass composite materials. For example, by immersing layers of glass cloth in hot melt plastic and forming it under pressure, it becomes the famous "fiberglass". Fiberglass is even tougher than steel, neither rusts nor corrodes, and its weight is only a quarter of that of steel of the same volume. Therefore, using it to manufacture the shells of ships, cars, trains, and machine parts not only saves a lot of steel, but also reduces the weight of cars and ships themselves, greatly improving the effective load-bearing capacity. As it does not rust, it can save a lot of maintenance costs
If glass is melted and blown into thin and short fibers using high-speed airflow or flames, it becomes glass wool. There is a type of moisture-proof ultra-fine glass wool, with more than 200 strands combined and only as thick as a single hair. Glass wool has strong insulation properties, and the insulation ability of a 3-centimeter thick glass wool is equivalent to that of a 1-meter thick brick wall! Glass wool also has a good sound absorption effect. Therefore, it is used as a material for insulation, sound insulation, thermal insulation, shock resistance, and filtration in many industrial sectors
