Glass fiber – a material made of fiberglass, a decorative coating intended for pasting walls. The basis for this building material is ordinary glass, from which, during high-temperature processing (t \u003d 1200 degrees Celsius), fiberglass is pulled and yarn of various thicknesses is made, then the material is woven.
The basis of the material for glass fiber is quartz sand, lime, dolomite and soda. All these natural substances give this finishing building material ecological cleanliness and increased strength. The main requirement for fire safety is met – this is the fire resistance of fiberglass wallpaper, when interacting and fire, they do not emit harmful substances.
Glass fiber does not lose its qualities when cleaning with almost any means intended for washing, naturally this will depend on the paintwork composition of their coating.
There is a type of fiberglass wallpaper that is widespread in interior decoration – fiberglass, usually builders call it a cobweb for its external resemblance to a cobweb. It performs not only the function of a decorative wall covering, but also as a reinforcing material that protects the walls from microcracks, giving an ideal surface. Fiberglass significantly increases the strength of coating materials.
Fiberglass wallpapers are used in the decoration of residential and office premises, shopping pavilions, clinics, cafes, restaurants and canteens, as they meet fire safety requirements, do not need special care and create an aesthetic appearance indoors. The service life of glass wall papers is on average about 30 years, it all depends on the microclimate of the room and the quality of auxiliary materials (glue, paint). This economical material can withstand up to twenty times the coverage, which allows you to change the design of the room..
Fiberglass wallpapers can be glued to any surface, wood, metal-coated, plastic or plasterboard, concrete or brick. Before gluing, it is necessary to carry out preparatory work on filling cracks, joints and priming the working surface.
Paints and varnishes for coating glass fiber should be selected based on the microclimate in the room and the frequency of mechanical impact on the surface. For example, in the bathroom, the coating should have moisture-repellent properties. They can easily be matched with a curtain in the bathroom in the color of the wallpaper..
Based on all the qualities of fiberglass wallpaper, we conclude that this is the most durable, economical and easy-to-use building material for interior wall decoration..
