Enka®-Spacer
Prior
to PUR foam injection or other RTM processes, Enka-Spacer can be
used as a spacer matting, holding the glass fibre layers in place.
The automotive industry (and technology related industries) is
making extensive use of a number of different types of the
Enka-Spacer product family.
Enka-Spacer is a flexible and
effective product that can speed up the production process and
ensures a repeatable high-quality product. It holds the placed
glass fibre reinforcement matting between the composite skins in
the correct location throughout the process, allows the polymer
foam to flow freely through the mould and ensures that both the
glass fibre reinforcement and the skins are fully wetted out.
 Benefits
of Enka-Spacer are: - Tailor made to suit customer
needs - Flexible yet compressible structure - No
pre-moulding required - Open structure – 95%
voids - Easy to handle, cut and load - Available
in thickness from 1-22 mm - Available in a variety of
polymers (PP, PET, HDPE, PA6)
Enka-Spacer is often used in
open (or closed) moulding processes, where it is placed between
the glass fibre reinforcement layers (see below).

It could
be used to produce dashboards, door panels, driver boxes, sunroof,
spoiler, consoles and etc, of cars, busses, other vehicals and
also for other applications.
