Albany, NY -- (SBWIRE) -- 02/25/2019 -- Glass-fiber reinforced polyphthalamide (PPA) is a composite in which glass is used as a filler and polyphthalamide as a matrix. Glass-fiber reinforced PPA is manufactured using the pultrusion process. Glass-fiber reinforcement provides high stiffness, strength, and durability to the composite product. Mechanical properties of glass-fiber reinforced PPA makes it suitable for a range of applications, as a replacement for metals or as an engineered substitute for other materials. Chemically, PPA is an aromatic and its ring structure provides superior resistance to a range of chemicals than standard aliphatic polyamides, even at high temperatures. Glass-fiber reinforced PPA enables automotive, electrical, and industrial components to withstand prolonged exposure to harsh chemicals such as bio-diesel fuel, brake fluid, glycols, and sulfuric acid.
