Staple fiber
Polyoxadiazole fiber (registered trademark Arselon®) is being produced in the Republic of Belarus. As the production process was designed alternatively to meta-aramid fibers, thus by its properties Arselon is very similar to various meta-aramid fibers. The staple fiber Arselon is a basis for spun yarns and felts which further can be processed into many kinds of materials for thermal application.
FEATURES OF ARSELON®
- Oxygen index (LOI) is 30%;
- No melting;
- Temperature of use 250 °C;
- Heat shock temperature 400° C;
- Flexible at high low temperatures;
- Low thermal expansion coefficient;
- Friction coefficient (metal surface) 0.2;
- Good adhesion to rubber;
- Moisture level 10-12% (similar to cotton);
- High electrical insulation properties.
APPLICATION OF ARSELON®
- Heat resistant spun yarns and fabrics (protective apparel, gloves, home and office textile);
- Woven and non-woven filtering materials, bag filters (metallurgy, cement, sphalt);
- Composites (sealing, sliding bearings, packing).
