When resin systems or elastomerics are combined with reinforcing fibers, exceptional properties can be obtained. The resin or elastomeric matrix spreads the load applied to the composite between each of the individual fibers and also protects the fibers from damage caused by abrasion and impact. High strength and stiffness, ease of molding complex shapes, high environmental resistance all coupled with low densities, make the resultant composites superior to unreinforced materials for many applications.

Our fabrics are used in both elastomeric and rigid resin laminate construction, either as a substrate material or as multi-layer elements. Some composite laminates even involve woven PTFE fiber, which one does not normally associate with laminates or adhesion; however, for flexible or rigid composite use, we are able to produce woven substrates from any fiber.

MANUFACTURING PROCESS

As these fabrics have such highly specific purposes and precise demands, Stern EWS  modifies and specializes the fabrics throughout the manufacturing processes.
