Emulsion glass fiberglass mesh

Specifications

• Material: Made from woven fiberglass fibers, often treated with an emulsion for enhanced flexibility and adhesion.
• Mesh Size: Common sizes include 5x5 mm or 10x10 mm, depending on the intended use.
• Weight: Typically ranges from 160 g/m² to 300 g/m², suitable for different reinforcement needs.
• Alkali Resistance: Many emulsion fiberglass meshes are alkali-resistant, making them ideal for use in cement-based applications.

Applications

1. Wall Reinforcement: Used in plastering and drywall to prevent cracking and improve structural integrity.
2. Repair Fabric: Ideal for patching damaged walls or ceilings due to its self-adhesive properties.
3. Exterior Insulation Systems: Commonly used in EIFS (Exterior Insulation and Finish Systems) to provide additional strength and durability.
4. Tile Backing: Serves as a backing material in tile installations, enhancing stability and preventing cracks.
5. Roofing Applications: Used in roofing membranes to enhance weather resistance.

Benefits

• Flexibility: The emulsion treatment allows for better conformability to surfaces, reducing the risk of wrinkling during application.
• High Strength-to-Weight Ratio: Provides excellent reinforcement without adding significant weight.
• Durability: Resistant to moisture and chemicals, extending the lifespan of structures where it is applied.
