40% Glass Plus 10% Mineral Filled Polyester is a subcategory of Polyester. The additative is added by weight during the manufacturing process. Its coefficient of thermal expansion ranges from 12.9 to 52.8 x 10-6/°C. Its molding pressure ranges from 5 to 14 MPa.
Polyester is a thermoplastic or thermoset polycondensate. Common trade names are Valox and Celanex. wholly aromatic (liquid crystal) It has excellent dimensional stability, high dielectric strength, and good toughness. It has moderate chemical resistance, low resistance to strong acids and bases, and is notch sensitive. However, it is not recommended for outdoor use or in hot water. Polyester is very popular in making clothing and handles.
