Phenoxy Yarn MS (Matrix soluble yarns)
Spun from a Phenoxy resin, MS yarn has been specially developed by EMS-GRILTECH for use in the composite industry.
GRILON© MS yarn is available in 2 counts: MS 150 Decitex / MS 300 Decitex.
GRILON® MS Phenoxy yarn, due to its thermoplastic properties, can be used as binding or bonding yarn to stabilize dry reinforcing structures such as unidirectional fabrics (UD) and non crimp fabric (NCF).
Our Thermoplastic matrix soluble yarn can also be used as a stitch thread for tailored fiber placement (TFP) and for preform assembly.
GRILON® MS yarn, having very similar chemical structure to epoxy resin, will dissolve completely into the epoxy resin during the injection and curing process. The result is an homogeneous CFRP component (only fibre + resin) with no foreign materials and improved mechanical properties.
Our Matrix soluble thread has therefore positive effects in the process chain and also on mecanical properties of the final composite.
The benefits and avantages of GRILON® MS yarns are the following:
The raw material Phenoxy resin is proven in composites and for aerospace applications.
Stabilisation of dry reinforcing fiber performs by thermobonding / hotpressing.
Dissolves in resin during curing.
Promotes reinforcing fiber adhesion.
Improves the mechanical properties of composite parts.
Local toughening where needed most.
non toxic.
