THE SCOTT & FYFE RANGE OF MULTIAXIAL FABRICS FOR THE COMPOSITE INDUSTRY
Scott & Fyfe have developed the Polyform range of multiaxial reinforcement fabrics for the composite industry. These non-crimp fabrics (NCF’s) are stitch bonded as opposed to woven. This results in increased fibre alignment allowing for stronger, stiffer and lower weight laminates to be produced. Available in unidirectional, biaxial, triaxial and quadaxial orientations. Characteristics such as drape and resin permeability can be optimised to meet specific requirements. The Polyform range can also be produced in combination with other fabrics such as chopped strand mat (CSM), woven roving (WR), flow media and surface veils to provide customers with customised solutions.
Polyform UD is a unidirectional fabric where the majority of fibres are orientated in one single axis. This allows for maximum mechanical properties to be gained in a single direction making it an ideal solution for long aspect ratio parts such as wind blades.
TECHNICAL INFORMATION
Configuration is 0° or 90°
Weight range is 300gsm – 1200gsm
Applications include automotive, rail vehicle, boat building and wind blades
Polyform Biaxial 0/90 is a bidirectional fabric with warp and weft plies orientated at 0° and 90°. This allows for maximum mechanical properties to be gained in both directions for strategic placement in a structure such as structural panels.
TECHNICAL INFORMATION
Configuration is 0° and 90°
Weight range is 300gsm – 1200gsm
Applications include construction, automotive, boat building and access covers
Polyform Quadaxial is a quadaxial fabric with fibres aligned in four different directions 0°, -45°, 90°, +45°. Due to the strategic fibre alignment this product is often used in boat building and wind turbine blades.
TECHNICAL INFORMATION
Configuration is 0°, -45°, 90°, +45°
Weight range is 600gsm – 1200gsm
Applications include wind blades, train nose cones and boat building
Polyform Triaxial is a triaxial fabric available in both warp (0°, +45°, -45°) and weft (90°, +45°, -45°) configurations. Due to the complexity of fibre alignment this product is particularly suitable for applications such as access covers.
Applications include automotive, agricultural and leisure
Polyform Biaxial +/-45 is a bidirectional fabric with plies orientated at +45° and -45°. This allows for maximum mechanical properties to be gained in both directions for strategic placement in a structure such as a yacht hull.
TECHNICAL INFORMATION
Configuration is +45° and -45°
Weight range is 300gsm – 900gsm
