“…After mixing the raw materials, they were placed into a crucible, and melted in a box furnace at 1650 C for 2 h. Some of the melted glass was then poured into a graphite mold to fabricate the sample. To remove any stresses, the AR-glass and E-glass compositions were annealed in the box furnace at 521 ± 10 and 621 ± 10 C, respectively, for 2 h. 15) As shown in Fig. 2, single laments were fabricated after berizing the glass samples.…”

In this study, we fabricated E-glass bers and alkali-resistant (AR)-glass bers with a 7 mass% zirconia content, and AR-glass bers with a 7 mass% zirconia and 30-50 mass% refused coal ore content. The obtained bers were characterized for their tensile strength and alkali-resistant properties after dipping the bers in an alkaline solution. The alkali test results, based on microscopic images, showed that the AR-glass bers with 7 mass% zirconia and 40 mass% refused coal ore had better chemical resistance than the E-glass bers. The average tensile strengths of the E-glass bers and the AR-glass bers with 7 mass% zirconia and 40 mass% refused coal ore, after being dipped in an alkaline solution for 48 h, were 240 and 343 MPa, respectively. In addition, after an alkali test for 72 h, the average tensile strength of AR-glass bers with 7 mass% zirconia was 277 MPa, and the average tensile strength of AR-glass bers with 7 mass% zirconia and 40 mass% refused coal ore was 296 MPa. The AR-glass bers with a high tensile strength and low berizing temperature, fabricated using refused coal ore, can be widely used as alkali-resistant glass bers.

“…In general terms, by its nature, the structure of E-glass is vitreous and disordered, and the main component is silicon dioxide. However, there are also significant concentrations of compounds whose metallic ions have valences of two or three [61]. In the glass network, the Si-O bonds have the highest bond energy; hence, they are the strongest.…”

“…Molecular diffusion may occur below this temperature assuming the straining temperature (T strain ) at least has been surpassed, but the time taken will be greater. For boron-free E-glass, these two temperatures can be given as approximately T ann = 740˝C and T strain = 690˝C [61]. Pugh et al [64] reported that only monovalent alkali metal ions (K and Na) possessed any significant mobility through silica-based optical fibres that were held at high temperatures for relatively long lengths of time.…”

Abstract:The recovery and reuse of glass fibres from manufacturing waste and end-of-life composites in an environmentally-friendly, cost-effective manner is one of the most important challenges facing the thermosetting polymer composites industry. A number of processes for recycling fibres from such materials are available or under development. However, nearly all options deliver recycled glass fibres that are not cost-performance competitive due to the huge drop in strength of recycled glass fibre compared to its original state. A breakthrough in the regeneration of recycled glass fibre performance has the potential to totally transform the economics of recycling such composites. This paper reviews the available knowledge of the thermally-induced strength loss in glass fibres, discusses some of the phenomena that are potentially related and presents the status of research into processes to regenerate the strength and value of such weak recycled glass fibres.

Abstract:Cu-E glass fiber composites were developed with different vol. % of E-glass fiber (10, 20, 30 and 40 vol. %) by powder metallurgy route. Both as-received Cu and nanostructured Cu developed by milling as-received Cu powder for 20 h were used to develop various Cu-E-glass fiber composites. The effect of using as-received Cu powder and nanostructured Cu powder on the properties of the various Cu-E-glass fiber composites was analysed. The samples were sintered at 900 o C for 1 h in inert atmosphere. The results show good bonding between the matrix and the reinforcement and there is homogeneous distribution of the reinforcement in the matrix. . The hardness of the Cu-E-glass fiber composites was found to increase from 0.8GPa to 2.7GPa with increase in vol. % of the glass fiber in case of unmilled and from 1.2GPa to 2.9GPa for the milled Cu-E-glass fiber composites. The as-milled Cu-Eglass fiber composites shows better densification and sinterability compared to the unmilled Cu-E-glass fiber composites
