Norplex-Micarta NP318 Phenolic Cotton Laminate Sheet, NEMA CF  (discontinued **)
Categories: Polymer; Thermoset; Phenolic

Material Notes: This product has been replaced by Norplex-Micarta NP318U

Post-forming canvas phenolic material. NP318’s mechanical and electrical properties are similar to NP310E. It is made from a cotton fabric weighing more than 4 ounces per square yard and having a thread count of not more than 70 threads per inch in both the warp and filler directions. The binder is a modified phenolic resin system, which permits the material to be heated, formed into a shape and cooled under restraint to hold the newly formed shape.
