Phenolic Laminates, also known as Thermosets, are high-performance insulation materials created by impregnating paper or cotton layers with phenolic resin and laminating them under heat and pressure. These laminates offer excellent electrical and mechanical properties, making them ideal for various industrial applications.
Key Features:
Good electrical insulating properties – Ensures safe and efficient insulation.
High moisture resistance – Suitable for humid environments.
Good dimensional stability – Maintains shape under varying conditions.
Excellent physical strength – Withstands mechanical stress.
Resiliency – Durable and long-lasting.
Ease and versatility of fabrication – Can be machined, drilled, punched, and more.
High hardness – Resistant to wear and tear.
Superior impact and compressive strengths – Provides structural integrity.
Cotton phenolic laminates offer higher mechanical strength and better machinability compared to paper phenolic laminates. Both types are suitable for machining, drilling, punching, sanding, tapping, turning, milling, shearing, and cutting.
Typical Applications:
Terminal boards
Switches
Bearings
Gears
Washers
Transformers
Machining components
