Glass Fiber

Glass fibre also called as fibreglass. It is material made of extremely fine glass. It is non-metallic and hence widely used as industrial materials. It is very useful because of their high ratio of surface area to weight. By trapping air within them, blocks of glass fibre make good thermal insulation. Some of major benefits of glass fibre are

1. Strength
2. Lightweight
3. High heat resistance
4. Good thermal conductivity
5. Fire resistant
6. Good chemical resistance
