Micro glass beads are a new type of material developed in recent years with a wide range of uses and special properties. 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 organic material systems.
The main uses of glass beads are as follows.
- Road marking micro glass beads are mainly used in normal temperature and hot melt road marking coatings. Divided into pre-mixed and surface-sprayed, pre-mixed glass beads can be mixed in the paint when producing hot-melt road paint, which can ensure long-term reflection of road markings within the life span.
- The micro glass beads used for industrial shot peening and additives can be used on the metal surface and the mold surface，it will not damage the surface of the workpiece,but also improve the accuracy. It is used for cleaning and polishing of metal, plastic, jewelry, precision casting and other objects. It is a high-grade finishing material commonly used at home and abroad.
- It is also widely used as a new type of material in medical equipment and nylon, rubber, engineering plastics, aviation and other fields. Such as additives, enhancers and so on.
- Micro glass beads, glass sand and colored glass beads for handicrafts are ideal materials for garment printing, garment heat transfer, Christmas tree surface decoration, artificial fruit, artificial flower handicraft surface decoration, and hourglass quicksand manufacturing!
- High refractive index micro glass beads are required materials for product such as,reflective fabrics, reflective coatings, chemical coatings, advertising materials, clothing materials, reflective films, reflective cloth, reflective signs, airport runways, shoes and hats, school bags, water, land and air life-saving supplies, night activities personnel clothing.
