CE Phenolic

Overview

What is the Material: CE Phenolic is a thermoset material, which consists of cotton canvas filled with a phenolic resin.

Key Material Features: This material is beneficial in applications requiring higher mechanical strength and impact strength than XXX phenolic.

Other Considerations:  CE is the electrical grade version of canvas phenolic.
