E-glass
Market: Overview
Glass
fiber is a versatile industrial material, which can be easily
manufactured from its raw materials. It exhibits characteristics such
as transparency, hardness, chemical attack resistance, and stability,
along with fiber properties such as stiffness, flexibility, and
strength. Glass fibers are utilized in the production of printed
circuit boards, structural composites, and an array of
special-purpose products.

The
letter “e” in e-glass (also known as e-class glass fiber) stands
for “electrical grade” which points toward its low electrical
conductivity. E-glass is also known to possess limited thermal
expansion coefficients, which makes it more resistant to thermal
shock than common glass. It is not affected by thermal stress and is
generally used to manufacture glassware that can be used in
laboratories, cooking, and for other general purposes.
E-glass
was initially developed for standoff insulators for electrical
wiring. It was also found to possess excellent fiber-forming
capabilities. Therefore, it commonly acts as a reinforcement agent in
fiberglass, which is made up of special polymer reinforced with glass
fiber, also known as glass-reinforced plastic (GRP) or glass-fiber
reinforced plastic (GFRP). The percentage of e-glass in the
composition varies depending on the type of fiberglass required. A
type of alumino-borosilicate glass composed of less than 1% w/w
alkali oxides, e-glass is highly preferred in the production of
fiberglass and other glass fiber-reinforced composites due to its low
cost, high stiffness & strength, heat & chemical resistance,
non-flammable property, and electrical insulation.
E-glass
Market Trends
Use
of glass fiber over asbestos has increased as the latter causes
cancer. However, there are concerns regarding glass fiber as well,
since its composition includes silicate fibers, which are responsible
for toxicity. Therefore, environment-friendly, boron-free e-glass has
been developed and replaced the boron-containing variety.
