Engineering FRP Off-Gas Ductwork for Corrosive, High-Temperature Service

Industrial off-gas handling is one of the most demanding jobs in composites. Ductwork carrying corrosive, high-temperature process gas has to survive sulfur-bearing gases, acidic condensate, abrasive solids, vacuum and constant thermal cycling — and still run for decades. Get the material and structural design right and FRP ductwork far outlasts metal; get it wrong and … Read more

Enhancing Abrasion Resistance in Fiberglass-Reinforced Plastics (FRP)

One aspect of fiberglass products that requires careful consideration is abrasion resistance. By introducing additives such as silicon carbide or aluminum oxide to interior surfaces, FRP can be significantly reinforced to withstand abrasion — particularly effective in mixing tanks up to the agitator level, inlet piping for desalination plants, splitter nozzles and similar applications. Nine … Read more
