Ranges of Application
S 4000® is used as thermal insulating board or as mechanical part for heated presses and tools in the plastics-, rubber– and wood processing industry.
Special material characteristics
- long-term temperature resistance
- exceptionally good insulation effect combined with high compressive strength
- good chemical resistance against acids and solvents
Advantages
S 4000® offers significant advantages compared to inorganic brittle insulation materials. In comparison to other glass fibre reinforced insulation materials S 4000® offers the same insulation effect with distinctly lowered insulation thickness.
