Reinforced Plastic Composites

Michelman products make composites stronger by tailoring the surface chemistry of reinforcement fibers to the chemistry of the matrix resin.

Applications

Fiber Sizing

Hydrosize® film forming dispersions optimize the surface chemistry of reinforcement fibers that are integral to high performance composites. The diverse Hydrosize product range is optimized for a broad range of thermoplastic, thermoset, and very high temperature resin matrices. Hydrosize is applied during the manufacturing process of chopped or continuous strand fiberglass, carbon fiber, and natural fibers and fillers.
