Linen Phenolic Laminate Overview
Linen phenolic laminate is a high-performance thermoset plastic made from layers of fine linen fabric impregnated with phenolic resin. This composite material is recognized for its fine-weave texture, exceptional wear resistance, and mechanical strength, making it suitable for a wide range of applications. Its impressive electrical properties further enhance its utility in electrical and electronic components. With its combination of durability and aesthetic appeal, linen phenolic laminate is ideal for manufacturing precision parts such as gears, bearings, and electrical housings, where both functionality and visual appeal are essential.
L Linen Phenolic Laminate a LE Linen Phenolic Laminate are both made from layers of fine linen fabric impregnated with phenolic resin. They are known for their high strength, smooth finish, and good electrical insulation properties, but they differ slightly in their applications:
-
L Linen Phenolic Laminate: This grade is valued for its mechanical strength and smooth surface finish, making it suitable for precise machining and use in parts where appearance and tight tolerances are important. It’s commonly used in mechanical applications such as gears and bearings.
-
LE Linen Electrical Phenolic Laminate: Similar to L grade, LE offers enhanced electrical insulating properties. It is designed for use in electrical and electronic components where both mechanical strength and electrical insulation are required, such as switch gears, transformer components, and electrical housings.
