The Fiberglass Genetic Study, Structural and Optical Transmission

Abstract

The four compositional samples were investigated in the high thermal resistance domain of fiberglass through the classical melt-quenching technique at temperatures up to 1500 °C. The analyses of the samples were carried out using thermal expansion, hydrolytic stability, density, Ultraviolet-visible (UV-Vis) transmission, and X-ray diffraction. The hydrolytic stability of the analyzed samples showed that they are chemically stable. From the thermal expansion. The examined samples had low expansion coefficients. On the UV-V transmittance, glasses have notable transmittances in the ultraviolet region down to 250 nm. Proton Induce X-Ray Emission (PIXE) and Rutherford Back Scattering (RBS) were used to depict the elemental compositions of glass samples. The Scanning Electron microscope (SEM) was used to examine the morphology of the glass samples. The presence of broad band in the glass samples in the X-ray analyses showed the amorphous nature of the glass contents. The presence of a specific high-frequency distinct peak in the spectrum showed that the fiberglass samples did not crystallize.
