The application of Glass Microspheres

Application of Glass Microspheres in Reflective Thermal Insulation Coatings

Reflective thermal insulation coating is a coating with high reflectivity by adding Glass Microspheres and other fillers to the coating to reflect sunlight to achieve the purpose of thermal insulation. Glass Microspheres are spherical in appearance. It has good infrared light reflection and infrared emissivity, and have a good reflection effect on visible light. Glass Microspheres are hollow closed spheres with thin gas inside. Its excellent thermal conductivity (0.0482-0.0910W/mk), make the coating have a very good thermal insulation effect. The Glass Microspheres added in the coating play a key role in the quality of the thermal insulation coating. Therefore, the Glass Microspheres are the core of preparing high-quality thermal insulation coatings. At present, this reflective thermal insulation coating is not only used in military and aerospace equipment, but also widely used in industries such as oil pipelines, oil storage tanks, communication base stations, and large storage silos.

Application of Glass Microspheres in Modified Plastics

The Glass Microspheres are a cutting-edge new material. It has a great significance to the performance upgrade of advanced chemical materials such as high-end polyolefins, special synthetic rubbers and engineering plastics, material lightweight strategies, and energy conservation and environmental protection. Compared with conventional plastics with mineral powder added, Glass Microspheres are used in resins, which can give plastics a series of excellent properties: 1. Reduce the amount of resin. 2. Reduce VOC. 3. Improve the flame retardancy and reduce the amount of smoke. 4. Improve the processing performance of the material. 5. Reduce shrinkage and warpage and maintain dimensional stability. 6. Improve the rigidity of the material. 7. Prevent the material from cracking. 8. Improve the performance of heat insulation, sound insulation and noise reduction. 9. Improve the dielectric properties. 10. Reduce the specific gravity.

Application of Glass Microspheres in Oil Field

1, The advantages of low-density drilling fluids formulated with Glass Microspheres: Glass Microspheres are inorganic chemicals, which are weakly alkaline and very stable in nature and can be added in the various existing mud systems. It does not react with various chemical substances in the mud, which can ensure the chemical stability of the drilling fluid. The Glass Microspheres have low density and high compressive strength, which is convenient for the deployment of low-density drilling fluids. It is widely used in deep wells to ensure the constant and stable drilling fluid density and the normal transmission of MWD signals. The Glass Microspheres are spherical in shape. It have excellent fluidity, and have excellent lubrication. They can reduce friction during drilling and can extend the service life of equipment such as drill pipes and drill bits, which can greatly increase drilling speed and increase operating productivity. The particle size of Glass Microspheres is easy to be compatible with existing drilling equipment, without the need to add special equipment, and the drilling fluid. The Glass Microspheres can be recycled and reused, reducing production costs.

2, Advantages of cementing mud prepared by Glass Microspheres: The low-density and high-strength mud system prepared by adding Glass Microspheres is one of the main ways to solve the problem of low pressure and low return of cement slurry in leaky wells. Excellent fluidity, easy to mix and pump; inorganic composition, high temperature resistance and high pressure resistance make the mud performance stable; the thickening time can be adjusted according to the construction needs, which is convenient for operation; effectively controls the water loss rate and prevents pollution; the slurry density is low , High compressive strength, 24h compressive strength can reach more than 15MPa; improve cementing quality and extend oil well life.

Application of Glass Microspheres in Substitute Wood

Substitute Wood filled with Glass Microspheres can provide excellent quality assurance for the manufacture of furniture parts, car models, architectural models, decorations and sculptures. Adding different proportions of Glass Microspheres to the original formula can not only reduce the amount of resin used, reduce costs, but also adjust the ideal product density. The oil absorption rate of Glass Microspheres is much smaller than that of ordinary fillers such as calcium carbonate. It is a resin that can effectively participate in film formation and enhance the adhesion of the coating. Compared with traditional mineral additives, Glass Microspheres have better fluidity and dispersibility, which can ensure the dimensional stability of the product, reduce shrinkage and warpage. At the same time it enhances the toughness and impact strength of the product.
