Abstract

Glass particles comprise glass microbubbles. The glass particles have a size distribution with a d50 in the range of from 15 to 100 microns, and have a true density of less than 0.7 g / cm3. The glass particles comprise, on an equivalent weight basis: from 50 to 70 weight percent silica; from 2 to 7 weight percent of boria; from 0.5 to 4 weight percent of weight zinc oxide; from 8 to 17 weight percent of calcia; from 0.8 to 7 weight percent of phosphorus pentoxide; and from 2 to 9 weight percent of sodium oxide.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure broadly relates to hollow glass microbubbles, and methods of making and using the same. Background technique [0002] Glass microbubbles, also known in the art as "hollow glass microspheres" or "glass microspheres," typically have low specific gravity, suitable heat resistance, thermal insulation, compression resistance (e.g., crush strength), and impact resistance, and achieves excellent physical properties when replacing conventional fillers. [0003] Accordingly, glass microbubbles are used in applications such as molded parts (including, for example, molding compounds for household appliances, portable electronic devices, and automobiles), putties, sealing materials, buoyancy materials for ships, composite wood, reinforced cementitious exterior walls materials, lightweight exterior wall materials and artificial marble. In addition, due to the structure of the hollow particles, the glass microbubbles can have a low dielectri...
