Why is molded grating more corrosion resistant than pultruded grating of the same resin type/properties?

-

Why is molded grating more corrosion resistant than pultruded grating of the same resin type/properties?

Resin protects the glass fibers from corrosive chemicals. Molded grating has 65% - 70% resin whereas pultruded grating has only 30 - 35% resin. 其次, molded grating is one-piece homogeneous construction whereas pultruded grating is assembled into panels. The corrosion barrier of the pultruded pieces are compromised when holes are drilled into components for panel assembly.

+

Why is pultruded grating stiffer than molded grating?

-

Why is pultruded grating stiffer than molded grating?

Pultruded grating is stiffer than molded grating because of the higher glass content of the pultruded grating.

+
