Glass Fiber, Filled Resin, and Textile Fibers
Transmitted Off Crossed Circular Polarized Light Illumination
Definition/Function:
A common structure for a cubicle divider consists of a metal frame supporting a resin
stiffened glass fiber
panel. The glass fiber panel is then covered with a thin loose glass fiber blanket and
an outer layer of
cloth. Glass fiber from the cubicle divider is heavily coated with heavily filled yellow
or orange phenolic
resin. The deterioration of the glass fiber panel is typically due to the panel's use as
a pincushion or to
other forms of mechanical damage.
