Fiberglass Molding: Encyclopedia II - Fiberglass - Manufacturing Processes

There are two main types of glass fiber manufacture and two main types of glass fiber product. First, fiber is made either from a direct melt process or a marble remelt process. Both start with the raw materials in solid form. They are mixed together and melted in a furnace. Then, for the marble process, the molten material is sheared and rolled into marbles which are cooled and packaged. The marbles are then taken to the manufacturing facility where they are inserted into a can and remelted. Then the molten glass goes to the bushing to be formed into fiber. In the direct melt process, the molten glass in the furnace ...

Fiberglass Molding: Encyclopedia II - Fiberglass - Properties

Glass fibers are useful because of their high ratio of surface area to weight. However, the increased surface makes them much more susceptible to chemical attack. Glass strengths are usually tested and reported of "virgin" fibers which have just been manufactured. The freshest, thinnest fibers are the strongest and this is thought to be due to the fact that it is easier for thinner fibers to bend. The more the surface is scratched, the less the tenacity is (Volf, 351). Because glass has an amorphous structure, its properties are the s ...

Fiberglass Molding: Encyclopedia II - Fiberglass - Chemistry

The basis of textile grade glass fibers is silica, SiO2. In its pure form it exists as a polymer, (SiO2)n. It has no true melting point but softens up to 2000°C, where it starts to degrade. At 1713°C, most of the molecules can move about freely. If the glass is then cooled quickly, they will be unable to form an ordered structure (Gupta, 544). In the polymer it forms SiO4 4- groups which are arranged as a tetrahedron with the silicon atom at the center and four oxygen atoms at the corners. These atoms then form a network bonded at ...

Fiberglass Molding: Encyclopedia II - Fiberglass - Formation

Glass fiber is formed when thin strands of silica based or other formulation glass is extruded into many fibers with small diameters suitable for textile processing. Glass is unlike other polymers in that, even as a fiber, it has little crystalline structure (see amorphous solid). The properties of the structure of glass in its softened stage are very much like its properties when spun into fiber. One definition of glass is "an inorganic substance in a condition which is continuous with, and analogous to the liquid state of that substance, b ...
