VOLUMAT™ 320P/180 P4
DESCRIPTION
VOLUMAT™ 320P/180 P4 is a needle-punched multi-layer product comprising a 320 gsm fabric and a 180 gsm mat. The particular needling of VOLUMAT ™ 320P/180 P4 brings a better surface appearance to the finished parts. VOLUMAT™ is used in pultrusion processes, most notably to manufacture large parts requiring mechanical properties.

Benefits
- Adds volume to the reinforcement to obtain thicker parts.
- Dedicated to parts with sharp angles, as high volume fibers of VOLUMAT™ allows optimum filling of critical areas.
- Woven roving brings transverse mechanical strength to finished products.
- Does not fray during processing which gives a better surface aspect than most of other reinforcements like CFM.
VOLUMAT™ Aspect specificity:
- Improve the surface appearance of profiles,
- Creates a barrier against UV or chemical attack,
- Saves preparation time (fabric + veil in one step).
