CFGF products are made of glass which is given a specific shape (filament) and dimension (filament diameter). A surface treatment (sizing) is applied to the filaments which are gathered to form a strand. The strand is further processed into a specific product design according to the downstream use of the article. The sizing is a mixture of chemicals, i.e. coupling agent, film former and polymeric resin/emulsion. The sizing content is usually below 3% For Chopped Strand Mat (CSM) and Continuous Filament Mat (CFM) products, a binder is applied in a secondary step to form the mat. The binder is a mixture of polymeric resin and surfactant. The content of sizing and binder is usually below 15% of the product weight
