Enfil™ Engineered Fibers are a family of fibers that have been developed to meet specific engineering needs. At present, 4 chemical compositions are available: Enfil SF, Enfil SH, Enfil HP and Enfil Z. They are made by melting pure oxides in an electric furnace and pouring the molten material into a fiberizing chamber. Depending upon the fiber diameter required, the molten material is fiberised either by dropping it onto a rotating wheel, or atomising it with compressed air and drawing the droplets into fibers in an accelerating air stream. Applications, where the fibers are used to modify specific
properties of a material: such as wear, strength or fatigue are as follows:- Friction Materials
- Mastics
- Paints
- Cements
- Plastics
- Metals
