PBO is the strongest and stiffest of commercially available fibers used to repair and strengthen concrete and masonry structures in externally bonded composite systems. [28] In this system, the fibers are produced in the form of a fabric mesh, and a cementitious mortar matrix bonds this to an existing structure.

ZYLON®(PBO fiber) is the next generation super fiber with strength and modulus almost doubles that of p-Aramid fiber. ZYLON® shows 100℃ higher decomposition temperature than p-Aramid fiber. The limiting oxygen index is 68, which is the highest among organic super fibers.

PBO cable is most notably known for exceptionally high modulus, strength, and length stability – making the fiber a prime candidate for ultra-high performance applications wherein a limited lifespan is acceptable.

ZYLON®(PBO fiber) is the next generation super fiber with strength and modulus almost doubles that of p-Aramid fiber. ZYLON® shows 100°C higher decomposition temperature than p-Aramid fiber. The limiting oxygen index is 68, which is the highest among organic super fibers. There are two types of fibers, AS (as spun) and HM (high modulus).

PBO was first developed in the 1980’s and is the world’s strongest man-made fiber. It is also the first organic fiber whose cross-sectional strength outperforms both steel and carbon fiber. Composition Zylon® PBO is a rigid-rod isotropic crystal polymer that is spun by a dry-jet wet spinning process. Common Deniers 250, 500, 1000, 1500. Types

POWERLITE PBO Rigging is a breakthrough in standing rigging technology — a custom engineered synthetic cable system developed as a practical drop-in performance enhancement that replaces wire or rod rigging.

Nov 28, 2016 · The four primary materials used in synthetic stays are: Dyneema, Aramid, Polybenzoxazole (good luck with that one) also known as PBO cable, and lately carbon fiber rigging is taking the performance stay market to the next level. These materials have proven to be a ‘weight wienie’s’ dream; synthetics offer somewhere between 60-80% in ...

Zylon PBO fiber is a high-strength, flame-resistant material that outperforms steel and carbon fiber, making it ideal for PBO fiber technology.

The low elongation specification of PBO and Aramid fiber can inherit perfectly. The breaking strength of 4mm PBO cable as the images shown on top can reach the highest tensile compared with other rope/string/cable in the same diameter.

These fibers and filaments are characterized by high tensile strength (10 times higher than steel), excellent impact energy absorption (twice that of para-aramid), and exceptional thermal stability (limiting oxygen index of 68). Zylon® PBO fiber is available in chopped fiber, staple fiber, spun yarn, and continuous filament. I. Properties
