Abstract
A non-woven chopped fiber mat includes a mixture of glass fibers and synthetic fibers. The non-woven mat is formed using a binder composition that includes a binder resin, a coupling agent, and a corrosion inhibitor. The non-woven mat is non-corrosive and resistant to volatile unsaturated monomers such as styrene, but still remains fully compatible with solvent-containing polyester resins, such that it can be used in various pultruded products.
Claims20
A pultruded composite product comprising:
- at least one roving impregnated with a thermosetting resin;
- and
- a non-woven mat comprising:
- at least one of glass fibers and synthetic fibers;
- and
- a binder composition comprising a binder resin, a coupling agent, and a corrosion inhibitor,
- wherein the binder composition is non-corrosive,
- wherein the binder resin comprises a thermoset material, a thermoplastic material, or a combination thereof, and
- wherein the non-woven mat exhibits a tensile strength of at least 1.0 lb/ft after being soaked in a 100% styrene monomer for 10 minutes.
