What Are Glass Beads? What Are They Used For?

Dec 19, 2024

What are glass beads?
Glass beads are a new type of material with a wide range of uses and special properties that has been developed in recent years. The product is made of borosilicate raw materials through high-tech processing, with a particle size of 10-250 microns and a wall thickness of 1-2 microns. The product has the advantages of light weight, low thermal conductivity, high strength, good chemical stability, etc. Its surface has been specially treated to have lipophilic and hydrophobic properties, and it is very easy to disperse in the organic material system.

 

 

What are glass beads used for?
Hollow glass beads are hollow, tiny spherical powders containing inert gas. As a new type of filler, it has the advantages of light weight, high strength, good fluidity, heat insulation, and corrosion resistance. It has broad application prospects in lightweight composite materials, coatings, aerospace, deep-sea cementing, electrical insulation materials, heat insulation, sound insulation materials, and military explosives. It is known as the "space age material".


In the future, with the continuous emergence of emerging industries and the continuous development of traditional industries, the application market of hollow glass beads, especially high-performance hollow glass beads, will be further expanded, and the industry will show a good development trend.
