Abstract: The invention is drawn to a method of coating a glass fiber textile comprising the following steps: —Preparing an aqueous coating composition comprising (a) 5 to 95% by weight, with respect to the total weight of (a) and (b), of a synthetic polymer or oligomer dissolved or dispersed in the aqueous coating composition, and (b) 5 to 95% by weight, with respect to the total weight of (a) and (b), of a dextrin exhibiting a weight-average molecular weight ranging from 250 000 to 2 000 000 Da and a solubility, measured according to a test A, ranging from 50 to 85%, —Applying said aqueous coating composition to a glass fiber textile, thereby obtaining a wet-coated glass fiber textile, —Submitting the wet-coated glass fiber textile to a step of drying and/or curing thereby obtaining a glass fiber textile coated with a water-insoluble polymer coating.

Abstract: A triaxial laid scrim includes a first, second and third set of continuous fibers. The fibers of each set are regularly spaced apart and are parallel to each other. The fibers of the first set are parallel to the warp direction or to the weft direction of the scrim. The fibers of the second set and the third set are oriented symmetrically to each other, respectively at an angle of 30°-80° with respect to the fibers of the first set. Distances between the fibers of the second set and the fibers of the third set are identical. The fibers of the second set cross the fibers of the third set at the intersection thereof with the fibers of the first set, thereby defining regular openings having an isosceles triangle shape. The fibers are coated and attached to each other by a coating that does not fill-up the triangle-shaped openings.

Abstract: The invention is drawn to a glass fiber mesh fabric coated with an organic polymer coating having a reduced gross heat of combustion (less than 3.0 MJ/kg), said polymer coating comprising (i) from 60 wt % to 99.9 wt % of poly(vinylidene chloride) (PVDC) or a copolymer thereof; and (ii) from 0.1 wt % to 40 wt % of a formaldehyde-based resin selected from melamine-formaldehyde resins, phenol-formaldehyde resins, urea-formaldehyde resins or a combination thereof. The invention also provides a method for producing such a coated glass fiber mesh fabric.
