Diallyl Isophthalate - DAIP Long Glass Fibre Reinforcement

Advantages

Higher tensile strength, flexural modulus, notched izod impact strength and lower mould shrinkage than the other modified grades of DAIP.

Disadvantages

Lower volume resistance, dielectric strength and higher density compared with the other modified grades of DAIP in Plascams.
