Glass which has been extruded into extremely fine filaments. These filaments vary in diameter, and are measured in microns. Glass filaments are treated with special binders and processed similar to textile fibers. These fibers come in many forms such as roving, woven roving, mat and continuous strands.
Fine-spun filaments of glass. Fiber glass often is made into yarn that is woven into textiles, used in woolly masses as insulation, or pressed and molded as plastic material.
Particles of glass spun into a form of insulation or material such as used in drapes.
