Abstract
A sizing composition for coating glass and carbon fibers. The composition comprises low concentrations of a cationic and nonionic lubricant, a film-forming polymer, and preferably a coupling agent and a hydrolyzing agent. Use of the sizing composition reduces fuzz development, increases wettability, and improves roving package stability.
