(The Uses of High-performance Hollow Glass Microspheres)

What are high performance hollow glass beads

High-performance hollow glass microspheres are hollow spherical powder-like
ultra-light inorganic non-metallic materials with light weight, large volume,
low thermal conductivity, high compressive strength and good mobility. Under a
high-magnification electron microscope, the high-performance hollow glass
microbeads look like crystal clear hollow glass spheres. It is precisely because
of this unique structure at a very small scale that hollow glass microspheres
have become a new type of lightweight material with widespread use and excellent
performance developed in recent years.

Application of High Performance Hollow Glass Microspheres

1. The soda-lime borosilicate composition of glass microbeads makes it
chemically stable and inert, thus giving it safety as a filler or as an additive
without worrying about it reacting with the substrate or other substances, and
making it Resistant to other chemical corrosion except strong alkali.

2. The perfect spherical shape gives it excellent anisotropy, so that there
will be no warpage and shrinkage due to non-uniform stress after processing.

3. Hollow glass microspheres are tiny spheres. In liquid, like miniature ball
bearings, they have better mobility than flake, needle or irregular shaped
fillers. The resulting microsphere effect makes the The viscosity of the mixture
decreases, and the filling performance is naturally excellent; the good
processing performance can improve the production efficiency by 10% to 20%.

4. The perfect spherical shape makes it have the smallest specific surface
area, so its oil absorption is low. Compared with the conventional filling
material calcium carbonate, the oil absorption rate of hollow glass microspheres
is much lower, and the oil absorption rate of different types of products per
100 grams Between 7 and 40 mg, and the oil absorption rate per 100 grams of
light calcium carbonate is as high as 120 to 130 mg, and the heavy calcium
carbonate is also as high as 50 to 60 mg. The amount of resin is reduced, and at
the same time, because it can increase the activity of the resin, the resin is
only used as a base material instead of a filler to stop processing, thereby
reducing the amount of resin.

5. Due to the dispersion of the particle size of the glass microspheres, the
small microspheres fill the voids of the large microspheres, thereby increasing
the solid content and reducing the VOC.

6. The color is white, so it has good color compatibility.

7. Very low true density and strong compressive strength, resulting in a high
compressive strength-to-density ratio, which makes it suitable for some
applications requiring high compressive strength, such as extrusion, compression
molding or In the petroleum industry, it can not only play the role of fillers
or additives to reduce density, but also make it have good survival rate and
stability during processing.

8. The particle size is small, and it will not reduce its toughness when it
is mixed with resin for processing. In the drilling fluid, the passing rate of
200-mesh sieve cloth is 99.8%, and the passing rate of 300-mesh sieve cloth is
88.5%. job request.

9. The inside of the hollow glass microspheres is a thin vacuum gas. The
density and thermal conductivity of the two different materials are different,
so it has the characteristics of sound insulation, heat insulation and low
thermal conductivity. It is an excellent choice for various thermal insulation
and sound insulation products. filler. The insulating properties of the
microspheres can also be used to protect the product from thermal shock caused
by alternating between rapid heating and quenching conditions.

10. The closed void ratio is very high, and the spherical shape is tight and
complete, and it is insoluble in water, so that its application in water is also
very stable. It is insoluble in water, and its applications in water such as
yachts, racing boats and the like are also extremely stable.
