Glasscoat Reinforcement in Resin

What Are the Benefits of Glass Fiber Reinforcement in Resin?

By Peter Gibson

Our Expert Specifying / Corrosion Engineer

Ten benefits of using glass fiber reinforcement in resin are:

• It improves the thermal stabilization of the coating
• It improves the mechanical properties
• Reduces moisture permeation of the coating
• Extends coating life
• Prevents cracking and peeling
• Increases hardness – improves wear and abrasion resistance
• Improves chemical resistance
• Reduces the tensile stresses that build up in the coating, as is experienced with traditional chop and mat fibers
• Improves the bond to steel and concrete
• The coating is sprayed as one homogenous mass
