3Tests on Core

10 pcs. in dye solution of Fuchsin(1 g Fuchsin in 100 g Ethanol)

6 samples boiled in deionised water for 100 h

Dye penetration test Water diffusion test

After 20 min. no dye penetrated into the test specimen

12 kV / 1 min. no puncture or flashover occurred No current registration (max. value 1mA)

4Shortly performed test to prove acid resistance of ourECR glass fibre rod.

Result:Tests was passed succesfully

Remark:A parallel test using E-glassfailed after a few hours
