GPO-3

GPO-3 is a glass reinforced thermoset polyester sheet. GPO-3 is strong, stiff, dimensionally stable and impact resistant. The material also has excellent electrical properties, including fire, arc and tracking resistance. It is widely used in electrical insulation applications. GPO-3 is also used in mechanical applications requiring strength, stiffness, dimensional stability and relatively low cost.

GPO-3 thermosets are widely used in:

Insulators for electromechanical equipment

Electrical insulation structure: GPO-3 is used to manufacture isolation boards, isolation covers, support structures, etc. for electrical equipment, providing good electrical insulation performance.

Motor and transformer components: Due to its good insulation properties and mechanical strength, GPO-3 is often used in the manufacture of partitions, terminal boards, support structures, etc. for motors and transformers.

Control cabinets and electrical boxes: Used to manufacture enclosures and support structures for electrical equipment, providing good insulation and mechanical support.

Cable Support Systems: GPO-3 materials are often used to create cable support and insulation structures to ensure cables are supported and isolated inside equipment.

Fuses and Circuit Breakers: GPO-3 is used to manufacture insulating components of fuses and circuit breakers that provide safe insulating isolation in electrical circuits.

Thermal Insulation: Due to its heat resistance, GPO-3 is also used in the manufacture of some thermal insulation components, such as insulating supports for high-temperature electrical equipment.

Electronic components: GPO-3 materials are widely used in some electronic components, such as casings of electronic equipment, isolation boards, etc.

Thermal insulation materials in high-temperature environments: Due to its good high-temperature resistance, GPO-3 can also be used in some occasions that require heat insulation.
