Glass bubble,Hollow glass microspheres , Glass sphere beads, Manufacturer & suppliers

High-performance glass bubble & hollow glass microsphere T20 is a kind of ultra-lightweight inorganic non-metallic material with hollow structure, and it is a versatile and high-performance new lightweight material developed in recent years. It will be the new composite materials at twenty-first century. Its true density is 0.15-0.60g/cm3 with 2-120m in diameter. It owns features with light weight, large bulky, low thermal conductivity, high compressive strength, smoothly mobility etc.
