OX Non-continuous Fibers

OX Non-continuous Fibers

ZOLTEK™ OX non-continuous fibers are oxidized/stabilized PAN fibers (OPAN) that are inherently fire resistant, thermally stable, exhibit excellent resistance to chemicals and solvents and are electrically nonconductive. Available in three denier sizes and various cut lengths, ZOLTEK™ OX non-continuous fibers can be used on their own or in fiber blends to produce the highest quality nonwoven felts and finest spun yarns available on the market today.

Features

Flame Resistant

ZOLTEK™ OX is inherently flame resistant, making it an effective heat-blocking and fire-barrier material. It outperforms all other organic flame-resistant fibers in terms of limiting oxygen index, and does so at a very competitive price.

Versatility

One of the largest benefits of ZOLTEK™ OX products is their versatility. ZOLTEK™ OX is available for all forms of textile processing including: needle punching, stitch-bonding, hydroentangling, thermal bonding, chemical bonding, air-laying, wet-laying, ring spinning, stretch-breaking, weaving, knitting and braiding.

Textile Nature

ZOLTEK™ OX textile products retain their appearance, have a soft hand and retain their textile characteristics, even after being exposed to open flames. In addition to not burning, melting or dripping, ZOLTEK™ OX fibers also do not shrink and will self-extinguish when exposed to flame.

Chemicals Resistance, Friction Resistance

ZOLTEK™ OX is often used as a braking material in extreme conditions, such as in environments where resistance to harsh temperatures, chemicals and friction is needed.
