GFRC / FRP Works
(GFRC ) - Glass fiber-reinforced concrete
Glass fiber-reinforced concrete consists of high-strength glass fiber embedded in a concrete matrix. In this form, both fibers and matrix retain their physical and chemical identities, while offering a synergistic combination of properties that cannot be achieved with either of the components acting alone.
In general, fibers are the principal load-carrying members, while the surrounding matrix keeps them in the desired locations and orientation, acting as a load transfer medium between the fibers and protecting them from environmental damage.The fibers provide reinforcement for the matrix and other useful functions in fiber-reinforced composite materials.Glass fibers can be incorporated into a matrix either in continuous or discontinuous (chopped) lengths.
FIBER IS SOURCED FROM NIPPON JAPAN
BODY MATERIAL LIKE SILICA AND CEMENT IS SOURCED FROM JK CEMENTS INDIA
THE CHEMICALS ARE SOURCED FROM DOW CHEMICALS STANDARD BASF
Fiber-reinforced plastic (FRP)
Fiber-reinforced plastic (FRP) (also fiber-reinforced polymer) is a composite material made of a polymer matrix reinforced with fibers. The fibers are usually glass, carbon, aramid, or basalt. Rarely, other fibers such as paper or wood or asbestos have been used. The polymer is usually an epoxy, vinyl ester or polyester thermosetting plastic, and phenol formaldehyde resins are still in use. FRPs are commonly used in the aerospace, automotive, marine, construction industries and ballistic armor.
ALL THESE ARE SOURCED FROM DOW CHEMICALS
