high dimensional stability (beneficial also for pressure components), robotic component or CNC machines to increase vibration damping and operate at high speeds.
An alternative to the above mentioned products is represented by UD tapes and balanced fabrics based on the spread Dialead®
ding della fibra Dialead® K13312, con modulo da 420 GPa a fronte di una resistenza a trazione di ben 3200 MPa, ideali per applicazioni in cui è richiesta una lavorabilità elevata. Il tessuto da 200 g/m2 è già in fase di collaudo industriale in applicazioni automobilistiche, per ridurre il
K13312 fiber, with a tensile modulus of 420 GPa and a tensile strength of 3200 MPa, which are ideal for applications requiring a high workability. So much so that the 200gsm balanced fabric is already under industrial test for automotive applications to reduce the weight of some large parts while maintaining or even increasing the stiffness of the composite structure, and in consumer goods, where there is a constant pursue of lightweight components support- ing high performances.
The laminate properties of DialeadTM K13312 UD / Spread tow fabric are illustrated in the table no. 3. Sumitomo Corporation Europe’s goal is to take the Di- aleadTM fiber to new and broader fields of application, which constantly pursue utmost performances. The very high potentialities of these new fabrics makes thinking big really possible and the high degree of
