Unlocking the Power of Adoxima’s Boehmite-Coated Glass Fibre: Extreme Heat Resistance and Superior Strength


Is your material tough enough to survive extreme heat and heavy impact? Most aren't.


At Adoxima Pty Ltd, we’ve developed a coating so powerful, it can make ordinary glass fibre withstand extreme heat and dramatically improve its tensile strength. The following article highlights the importance of improving the critical attributes of materials sighting a recent study completed using Adoxima’s Advanced Boehmite Coating material.


The Heat Problem: Why Most Materials Fail When It's Exposed to Heat


Materials that can’t withstand heat fall apart. In aerospace, automotive, or even construction, heat is often the silent killer, weakening fibres, melting surfaces, and degrading structures. That’s why nano-materials with their heat-resistive and strengthening properties have sparked interest across the materials and science communities. Until now it’s been hard to produce these materials sustainably and cost efficiently. Adoxima has engineered a solution that is starting to generate excitement in the world of material science.


Adoxima’s Advanced Boehmite Coating.


We coated glass fibre with our Advanced Boehmite formula producing incredible results. In our tests, the untreated glass fibre crumbled after just a few seconds of exposure to an open flame. We exposed our coated material 50% longer under heat and it was still intact, flexible, and barely scorched.


The industrial potential: 50% longer heat exposure and the fibre held its ground. Imagine what that could mean for the toughest projects - fireproof insulation, aerospace components, or even heat-resistant fabrics.


Tensile Strength Performance: More Than Just Heat Resistance


The Boehmite coating doesn’t just keep glass fibres from crumbling under heat. It also improves critical attributes such as flexibility and tensile strength. We partnered with the IIT Bhilai, and their analysis blew us away. Check out these numbers:


  • Tensile Strength: 278% higher than regular glass fibre.

  • Modulus (how much a material can bend and return to shape): 95% higher.


Our Boehmite-coated fibre isn’t just tough - it’s almost three times tougher than the standard stuff. This makes it perfect for ballistic gear, body armour, or any application where strength is necessary


Why Adoxima’s Advanced Boehmite Works So Well


At Adoxima we use our proprietary Disordered Nano-Cluster (DNC™) Technology to create ultra-small Boehmite particles - under 5 nanometers in diametre


Translation: We’ve got 10x more surface area compared to industry standards. That means better bonding, better coverage, more protection, and unbeatable heat and impact resistance.


So, Who Can Use This Coating Material?


  • Aerospace (for parts that need to survive extreme heat without failing)

  • Ballistics and Armor (for gear that needs to be lightweight but strong as hell)

  • Construction (for safer, more durable flame-retardant materials)


This technology developed by Adoxima is versatile enough to be used in ways we haven’t even imagined yet. If your industry demands strength and heat resistance, it’s time to collaborate.


At Adoxima, we’re not just adding another product to the market. We’re setting a new standard for what high-performance materials should be. Whether you’re dealing with extreme temperatures, heavy impacts, or both, our Boehmite-coated glass fibre is ready to take on the challenge.


Ready to Transform Your Projects?


This isn’t just a fancy coating - it’s a revolution in material science and is ready for real-world applications.


Watch our heat test video to see it in action. This is the next generation of material strength, and it’s here for those who aren’t afraid to innovate.


Real-Life Demo: Seeing Is Believing Check out our video showing the heat test in action.




  • Untreated Glass Fibre: Crumbles instantly under heat

  • Boehmite-Coated Fibre: Holds its structure, keeps its flexibility, after being exposed to open flame.


This is the kind of performance that opens doors in industries where failure isn’t an option. Whether you’re insulating an aircraft engine or protecting vital components in high-heat environments, this material stands ready for the challenge
