- Multiaxial Fabrics

From

ARMATON multiaxial fabric is a textile material consisting of one or more layers of glass fibers. The layers are oriented in various directions and stitched with a polyester yarn. ARMATON multiaxial fabrics are manufactured using state-of-the-art equipment from Germany, which guarantees   output of high-quality products.

Depending on number of layers, the following fabrics are manufactured:

  • One-layered /monoaxial (0/90)

  • Two-layered / biaxial (0/90), (+45/-45)

  • Three-layered / triaxial (0/+45/-45)

  • Four-layered / quadri-axial (0/+45/90/-45)

 

Application

Typical application:

ARMATON multiaxial fabrics are used as a reinforcing filler for making high-endurance materials out of fiberglass reinforced plastics (FRP).

The FRP based on multiaxial fabrics are successfully applied in the following industries:

  • wind energy (blades, aerodynamic tunnel of wind power generators)
  • aircraft (fuselages of planes and helicopters, main and anti-torque rotors of helicopters, wings, aerodynamic fairing, passenger seats)
  • space (aerials, paraboloidal mirrors, autoclaves)
  • marine (hulls)
  • automotive (non-load bearing parts of a car body, refrigerated containers)
  • railway (bodies of rail and subway cars, aerodynamic fairings, load-bearing parts of interior furnishing)
  • building (reinforcement of concrete structures, window and door profiles, tents, bridges)
  • tubes and vessels for storage and transportation of deleterious substances
  • sports gear (tennis rackets, skis, surfs boards and snowboards, boats, bicycle frames, ice hockey sticks and helmets)
  • medicine (medical devices)

Advantages

glass-fiber multiaxial fabrics are non-inflammable, non-toxic.

Compared to woven roving glass fabrics, multiaxial fabrics ensure:

  • high strength properties in terms of tension, bend, torsion
  • impact resistance
  • quick and high-quality impregnation with binding agent
  • reduction in quantity of fabric during laying and optimization of composites manufacturing process
  • high workability
  • possible reinforcement of composite materials in different directions
  • reduction in consumption of resin to 20-30%: owing to non-interwowen yarns, strands are laid denser as compared to roving fabrics, thus resulting in lower resistance to flow of a binding agent
  • final weight may be reduced to 50%
  • mechanical strength may be increased twice (twice mechanical strength of roving fabrics with comparable surface weight)
  • strict adherence to assigned reinforcement design
  • absence of nodes on surface of product.
