Both polyester mesh and fiberglass mesh, PVC Mesh Fabric are common textile materials, each with different features and applications. Here is a comparison of them:
1. Polyester Mesh
Polyester mesh is a mesh fabric woven from polyester fibers (usually polyester). It is usually made by weaving, and the size of the mesh can be adjusted as needed.
Features:
Lightweight and flexible: Polyester fibers have good flexibility, and the mesh feels relatively light, which is suitable for occasions that require a certain degree of softness.
Durability: Polyester mesh has good wear resistance and can maintain a long service life in daily use.
Water resistance: Polyester itself absorbs less water, so polyester mesh has good water resistance and moisture resistance.
Breathability: Polyester mesh usually has good breathability and is suitable for applications that require ventilation.
UV resistance: Polyester materials usually have good tolerance to UV rays and are suitable for outdoor environments.
Good dyeability: Polyester mesh is easy to dye and can be made into various colors and patterns.
Applications:
Advertising cloth, flags, display materials
Indoor and outdoor decoration, curtains
Car seats, interior fabrics
Water treatment, filter screens
Mosquito-proof, dust-proof nets, etc.
2. Fiberglass Mesh
Fiberglass mesh is a mesh woven from glass fiber yarn. Due to the special properties of glass fiber, fiberglass mesh has many characteristics different from polyester mesh.
Features:
High strength: Glass fiber has extremely high tensile strength, so the bearing capacity of fiberglass mesh is stronger than that of polyester mesh and its durability is also better.
High temperature resistance: Fiberglass mesh can withstand high temperatures, is not easy to melt or deform, and is suitable for use in high temperature environments.
Corrosion resistance: Fiberglass has a strong tolerance to chemicals and corrosive liquids, so it is suitable for chemical treatment or corrosive environments.
Good fire resistance: Glass fiber itself has good fire resistance and can be used in occasions where fire protection is required.
Lower flexibility: Compared with polyester mesh, fiberglass mesh is harder and more rigid, and does not feel as soft.
Application:
Construction industry: used for building reinforcement, wall insulation, exterior wall decoration, etc.
Fireproof and anti-corrosion materials: such as fireproof nets, chemical protection nets, etc.
Composite material reinforcement: used as a reinforcement material to manufacture composite materials such as fiberglass reinforced plastics (FRP).
Filter net: used for filtering applications in the petroleum, chemical and other industries.
PVC Mesh Fabric
Material: The base fabric is usually polyester fiber or other synthetic fiber, and the surface is coated with polyvinyl chloride (PVC) coating.
Features:
Waterproof and moisture-proof: The PVC coating makes it waterproof.
UV resistance: PVC mesh fabric is UV-resistant and suitable for outdoor use.
Abrasion resistance: The PVC layer increases the wear resistance of the material and extends its service life.
Chemical resistance: It has a certain ability to resist acid, alkali and chemical corrosion.
Plasticity: Compared with polyester mesh and glass fiber mesh, PVC mesh fabric is more flexible and can be cut into various shapes.
Application:
Advertising flags and banners: Due to its weather resistance and printability, it is often used in outdoor advertising.
Industry and construction: used for dust nets, protective nets, scaffolding, etc.
Sports facilities: such as court fences, etc.
Transportation and vehicles: such as car awnings, trailer covers, etc.
