Product Features:
Appearance and texture: Hollow glass microspheres appear as a loose, free-flowing white powder, with a delicate feel and easy processing.
Chemical and Physical Properties: High chemical stability, excellent electrical insulation, low oil absorption and low density. These properties make hollow glass microspheres ideal for a variety of applications.
Microstructure: When viewed under a microscope, hollow glass microspheres exhibit a hollow, sealed spherical structure with diameters ranging from 10-250 microns, which is where they get their name.
History & Advantages:
Hollow glass microspheres have undergone years of development and optimization since their inception in the 1950s. Their low density properties are particularly remarkable, with hollow glass microspheres weighing half or even a quarter as much per unit volume as solid filler materials. This means that with hollow glass microspheres, you can significantly reduce material costs while maintaining performance.
Wide range of applications:
Engineering plastics: Hollow glass microspheres are widely used in the production of nylon, PP, PBT, PC, POM and other engineering plastics. It can reduce the production cost, improve the flame retardancy and heat distortion temperature of the products, as well as improve the fluidity and eliminate the problems of glass fiber exposure.
Lightweight concrete: In the field of lightweight concrete, hollow glass microspheres can significantly improve the adhesion, abrasion resistance and compression resistance of products. The products made of it are lightweight and stable, and are widely used in vehicles, ships and other manufacturing fields.
Synthetic wood: Hollow glass microspheres can also be used in the manufacture of synthetic wood, giving it a texture and structural properties similar to those of natural wood, as well as realizing the effects of heat insulation, lowering specific gravity and reducing thermal expansion.
