Features and Usage of Fiberglass

Features of Fiberglass mesh fabrics:

Fiberglass mesh fabrics are made from glass yarns.Therefore,the quality of fiberglass mesh fabrics is directly determined by the quality of the yarn.To withstand this caustic/alkaline environment the yarns have to be protected with a substance resistant to strong alkalis.Alkali resistant fiberglass mesh fabrics vary a lot with the weight. Usually this weight ranges from 50-450 gr/m2.Alkali resistant fiberglass mesh also vary a lot with its mesh dimensions.When you compare fiberglass mesh fabrics, you should compare apples with apples!

Usage and Application:

Fiberglass mesh fabrics can reinforce the tensile impact and flexural strengths of plasters renderings (stuccos), screeds etc. They are widely used in the construction industry.They are also used as an integral part of External Insulation Finishing Systems (EIFSs) or in other words, External Thermo Insulating Composite Systems (ETICS).
