Cotton and Linen materials have several advantages such as: will not cold flow, good mechanical properties, easy to machine, and good heat resistance. They tend to have low chemical resistance to acids and low tensile strength. Applications are numerous, such as bearings, gears, electrical, shims and spacers, and wear guides.

NP343LB pre-preg is composed of a fine-weave (linen) cotton fabric combined with a phenolic resin, enhanced with a solid molybdenum disulfide powdered lubricant that reduces wear and friction in most applications.
NP342B is composed of a medium-weight canvas combined with a phenolic resin system.
NP320EB offers better machining characteristics than canvas phenolic grades, because it is produced from a fine-weave (linen) cotton fabric, combined with an electrical grade of phenolic resin.
NP310EB pre-preg is a semi-cured material that combines a medium-weave, cotton fabric substrate with an electrical grade phenolic resin system.
NP310B pre-preg is a standard canvas grade that provides good mechanical properties and better impact strength than that offered by phenolic paper grades.
