Thermomechanical behaviour of unidirectional glass fiber reinforced rigid PVC profiles during processing and application KU Leuven
Manufacturers of window profiles are increasingly challenged to achieve higher rigidity without the need for post-processing of profiles. To achieve this, taking into account durability, an appropriate amount of fiberglass UD tapes will be placed inside the PVC profile. The location and quantity of these tapes have a major influence on the processability and the performance of the final product. During the production process, the fluctuating ...
