LCP (Liquid Crystal Polyester) fiber "Siberas" *Free booklet available
Toray's high-performance fibers contribute to weight reduction and cost savings! They do not absorb water, eliminating concerns about corrosion while maintaining high strength. There are also various examples of processing, such as seismic-resistant materials.
Toray's "Shiberasu" is a fiber made from LCP (liquid crystal polyester) resin, characterized by high strength, high elasticity, and low elongation. It does not absorb water, poses no risk of corrosion, and maintains high strength over long periods. It contributes to product lightweighting as an alternative material to metals, as well as reducing total costs. 【Fields and Application Examples】 ◆ Construction: Safety belts, lifelines (ropes), slings, power line construction, seismic isolation sliding materials for bridges, etc. ◆ Marine: Vessels, aquaculture units, mooring for offshore wind power generation, etc. ◆ Civil Engineering: Dam debris prevention units, cables, slings, etc. 【Features】 ■ Resistant to dimensional changes due to fluctuations in environmental conditions ■ Absorbs vibrational energy, also serves as a seismic-resistant material ■ Tests confirm it has a higher specific strength than standard SUS304 *We are currently offering a free booklet featuring case studies where this product has been used for mooring ropes in hydropower plants!
