RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT
 
 



Research and Development has been a major focus of KETEX. It believes in close co-operation with its customers to develop new products .Its ongoing R&D by its dedicated team of qualified personel has yeilded results and achievements to be proud of.

KETEX has developed a technique where it allows to weave very thin fiber glass fabric of 1.7 mil(.04 mm) & 1.2 mil(.03 mm) thick without any sizing. This enables KETEX to maintain the L.O.I of its fabrics to less than 2%, which helps in better absorption of resin and electrical insulation.

Desized and Silane treated fabrics manufactured by KETEX are particularly suitable for this sheet lamination.

KETEX was first to develop Texturised Fiber Glass yarns braided with Brass wire for clutch facings after a continuous effort of about 2 yrs.

KETEX has also developed Non-Woven Tubular Bags (Gauntlets) for inverter batteries, electric car batteries & traction batteries after about an effort spanning almost 18 months.

KETEX is currently working on upgradation of its two products for filtration applications. Combo bags which would neither emit any smoke or flame during application and filter fabric suitable for piston filters.

KETEX is also currently working on fiber glass composite with Polyimide resin & prepegs for various defense applications.

KETEX is also working on RFL treated Polyester yarn for application on timer belts. It has also developed a Cotton Polyester fabric with very specialised treatment for onward moulding applicatoins used KETEX is also actively working on Plasma technology application on certain of its products and nano particles.

KETEX is also actively participating with Brookhaven National Laboratory, USA in their R & D for Accelerator Magnets with React & Wind High Temperature Superconductor. We are supplying them highly specialised Fibre Glass tape for insulation of cables.

KETEX as employed some of the very latest production technology available around the world and sophisticated laboratory equipments in its R & D.
