UPGM/GPO-3 Sheet
GPO-3 Sheet Product Introduction
I. Product Definition and Core Features
GPO-3 (also known as UPGM-203) is a rigid insulating sheet formed by high-temperature, high-pressure lamination using alkali-free glass fiber mats as reinforcement materials and unsaturated polyester resin as the binder.
Its core features include:
Electrical Performance:
Arc resistance ≥180 seconds, Comparative Tracking Index (CTI) ≥600V, Dielectric strength (3mm thickness) ≥25kV, Complies with UL94 V-0 flame-retardant standard.
Mechanical Performance:
Tensile strength 340-440 MPa, Flexural strength 250-350 MPa, Rockwell hardness HR-R 120-125, combines rigidity and impact resistance.
Thermal Resistance:
Insulation class F (155℃), short-term heat resistance up to 210℃, stable electrical and mechanical properties within 120-210℃.
Processability:
Suitable for stamping, drilling, milling, and other machining processes.
Ideal for customizing complex shapes with high processing efficiency and no delamination.
II. Raw Materials and Manufacturing Process
Raw Materials:
Alkali-free glass fiber mats: Provide high strength and deformation resistance, with uniform fiber structure ensuring material isotropy.
Unsaturated polyester resin: Offers excellent adhesion and chemical corrosion resistance. Flame retardants are added to meet UL94 V-0 standards.
Manufacturing Process:
Impregnation: Glass fiber mats are fully saturated in resin solution to ensure penetration into fiber gaps.
Drying: Solvents and moisture are removed to form prepreg.
Lamination: Prepreg layers are thermally cured under 120-210℃ and 5-15MPa pressure to create a dense structure.
Post-processing: Cutting, grinding, and other techniques achieve dimensional precision, with surface roughness Ra ≤3.2μm.
