Bakelite (Phenolic Laminated) Sheets
|

Bakelite is a generic named material based on the thermosetting phenol formaldehyde resin. It was the first plastic made from synthetic polymers. It was used for its nonconductive and heat-resistant properties in radio and telephone casings and electrical insulators. The retro appeal of old Bakelite products, especially kitchenware and toys, has made them quite collectible in recent years. Bakelite Phenolic sheet is a hard, dense material made by applying heat and pressure to layers of paper or glass cloth impregnated with synthetic resin. These layers of laminations are usually of cellulose paper, cotton fabrics, synthetic yarn fabrics, glass fabrics or unwoven fabrics. When heat and pressure are applied to the layers, a chemical reaction (polymerization) transforms the layers into a high-pressure thermosetting industrial laminated plastic.
Phenolic laminated industrial sheet are mainly paper based & cloth based. Available thickness:
• Paper base: 0.5mm- 50mm • Cloth base: 0.5mm- 200mm
Available size: 1220X2440mm, 1000X2000mm Paper base sheets are mainly used for insulating purpose available in various grades (cloth base sheet are used in making machinery parts, pinions, bush etc.) Fibre bearing of different size is also available.
