SYNTHETIC FABRIC Synthetic Fabric Base Laminates: Synthetic fabrics such as nylon and several aramid fabrics are combined with epoxy and phenolic resin systems to give the resulting laminates some unique properties for special applications. Fabric-base Laminate - Laminated insulating material formed by bonding woven cloth (of fiber glass, cotton, asbestos or synthetic fibers) with resin under heat and pressure. Facer Sheet - The outermost layer of a laminate. Laminated Plastics - Layers of a synthetic resin-impregnated or coated base material bonded together by means of heat and pressure to form a single piece. Lamination - The process of preparing a laminate. Also any layer in a laminate. However, since most of the NEMA Grades of laminates, which make up the majority of those sold, use more common substrates like bleached and unbleached kraft paper, cotton linter paper, cotton fabrics, nylon fabric and glass fabrics and mats, this presentation will be limited to those listed above. |synthetic fabric|Synthetic fabrics|thermoplastic|phenolic resin|
