Glass Mat Reinforced Thermorplastic (GMT) was introduced in the mid-1960s and is one of the most actively developed composites in the world. This is a novel, energy-saving and lightweight composite material which is based on thermoplastic resin and reinforced by long glass fiber felt or continuous glass fiber felt. GMT has the advantage of material and process properties and can be produced on a large scale, so it plays a large role in replacing traditional materials.

Glass Mat Reinforced Thermorplastic

‌1. Light and high strength ‌ : GMT plate is reinforced by long glass fiber or continuous glass fiber, which has the characteristics of light weight and high strength, can significantly reduce the weight of products, and is conducive to energy saving and emission reduction and improve transportation efficiency.


2. Excellent impact resistance ‌ : GMT plate can withstand external impact and not easy to damage, suitable for the need to bear high impact load occasions.


3. Good formability ‌ : GMT plate can be softened by heating and placed in the press for stamping forming, suitable for a variety of complex shapes and structures of the products, high production efficiency and product dimensional stability.


4.Chemical corrosion resistance ‌ : GMT plate substrate material is usually thermoplastic, has good chemical corrosion resistance, can resist acid, alkali, salt and other chemical substances erosion.
‌ 

5. environmentally-friendly recyclable ‌ : GMT plate can be recycled and reused to reduce environmental pollution. After waste, it can be harmlessly treated by pyrolysis, incineration and other means to realize the recycling of resources.


6.Good electrical insulation ‌ : GMT plate has good electrical insulation properties, suitable for electrical equipment parts manufacturing.
‌ 

7. Good heat and weather resistance ‌ : GMT sheet can maintain stable performance over a wide temperature range, suitable for outdoor environment or high temperature environment.
