Abstract
A glass fiber containing polymer sheet is prepared by providing a non-woven carrier web, superposing an adhesion film over the carrier web, applying a layer of glass fibers onto the adhesion film, and laminating together the assemblage.
Claims8
A process for preparing a glass fiber containing polymer sheet, comprising:
- providing a non-woven carrier web;
- superposing an adhesion film immediately adjacent the non-woven carrier web;
- applying a layer of uniformly distributed, randomly oriented glass fibers onto the exposed surface of the adhesion film;
- and
- laminating together the layer of glass fibers, adhesion film, and non-woven carrier web by heating same to a temperature above the plastic set temperature of the adhesion film and compressing the layer of glass fibers, adhesion film, and carrier web, said adhesion film adhering to the non-woven carrier web, and said glass fibers being encapsulated substantially within the exposed surface region of the adhesion film.
