Ordinary A-glass ("A" for "alkali-lime") or soda lime glass, crushed and ready to be remelted, as so-called cullet glass, was the first type of glass used for fiberglass. E-glass ("E" because of initial Electrical application), is alkali-free and was the first glass formulation used for continuous filament formation.
The first instance of a self-cleaning surface was created in 1995. [1] Paz et al. created a transparent titanium dioxide (TiO 2) film that was used to coat glass and provide the ability for the glass to self-clean. The first commercial application of this self-cleaning surface, Pilkington Activ, was developed by Pilkington glass in 2001. This ...
The first self-cleaning glass was based on a thin film titania coating. [3] The film can be applied by spin coating of organo-titanate chelated precursor (for example titanium iso-tetrapropoxide chelated by acetylacetone), followed by heat treatment at elevated temperatures to burn the organic residues and to form the anatase phase.
The resin and hardener part together is known as the "Binder". As the name indicates, in Fusion bonded epoxy coatings the resin part is an "epoxy" type resin. “Epoxy” or “Oxirane” structure contains a three membered cyclic ring — one oxygen atom connected to two carbon atoms – in the resin molecule. This part is the most reactive ...
Windex — that $3.50 glass cleaner spray you keep under your sink — can be used to detail the interior of your car, to put the shine back in your jewelry and even to unstick zippers.
A resin impregnated felt tube made of polyester, fiberglass cloth, spread tow carbon fiber or other resin-impregnable substance, is inserted or pulled through a damaged pipe, usually from an upstream access point such as a manhole or excavation. (It is possible to insert the liner from a downstream access point, but this is more risky).
Moisture-curable polymers are used as electrical insulation in some kinds of cables and for water pipe in under-floor heating installations. Vinyltrialkoxysilanes are also used as a coupling agents or adhesion promoters for treatment of glass fibers and particulate minerals in order to form stronger bonds with resin and produce fiberglass with ...
