Michelman to showcase fiber sizing and adhesion solutions at CAMX 2022
CINCINNATI, OH, August 18, 2022-
Michelman is a manufacturer of advanced materials, including fiber sizing and surface modifiers used to produce reinforced plastic composites. As an industry leader in the development and production of innovative and novel water-based functional dispersions and emulsions of polymers, resins, and waxes, the company will showcase its Hydrosize® and Hydrosize® Carbon fiber sizing solutions and its Unyte® technologies for technical textiles at CAMX 2022.
Hydrosize® is Michelman's flagship line of sizing solutions designed for use in the manufacturing of glass, carbon, and natural fibers, including both chopped and continuous formats. They are used as lubricants, film formers, sizing agents, and binders during fiber manufacturing and composite processing. This technology allows fiber manufacturers to optimize the interfacial adhesion between the polymers and fibers by tailoring their reinforcement fibers' surface chemistry to the matrix resin's chemistry. This improved interface adhesion helps fiber producers and composite manufacturers produce stronger, lighter, and more durable composite parts.
