Line Card - Fiber Blends & Raw Materials used:

Knowlton engineered composites provide lightweight, energy-saving structural integrity, increased thermal endurance, enhanced physical, electrical and chemical performance and abrasive resistence for specialty barriers, laminates and friction material.

We produce exotic media utilizing a host of diverse materials and fibers.  Plus, with the capability to handle many operations (i.e.: laminations, chemical treatments, etc.), we can meet exacting customer requirements quickly and cost-effectively. Some of the many blends we use to form wet-laid non- wovens:

Ceramic Fibers - high temperature gaskets, panels, prepegs, pre-forms, ballistics, and heat / fire barriers offering these exceptional characteristics and properties:

  • High temperature resistance
  • Excellent thermal expansion properties
  • Continually improving ballistic properties
  • Excellent stiffness to weight properties and rigidity
  • Increased hardness
  • Reduced wear
  • Reduced erosion
  • Corrosion resistance
  • Low oxidation
  • No moisture absorption
