		In 1893, Edward Drummond Libbey exhibited a dress at the World's Columbian Exposition incorporating glass fibres with the diameter and texture of silk fibres.
		Fibre has over 40,000 different applications, including reinforcement of plastics and rubber, electronics and wall coverings. Drawn as a continuous filament it can be manufactured into yarn and is especially useful in the reinforcement of plastic products (being fire-resistant) and in thermal insulation.
		Glass fibres are also an extremely versatile material and have many uses from roof insulation to medical equipment.

	Fibre Composites
		Pultruded fibre glass sections used to replace many steel or aluminium sections in projects that require corrosion or insulation properties.
		Fibre Composites are able to not only produce solutions for their clients but are able to provide secondary fit-out services for those solutions.
		When using fibre glass composite materials instead of materials such as steel, or timber, there are significant reductions in weight due to the properties of the component materials.

	CFS Fibreglass Supplies: Fibreglass for ponds and pools
		When cutting glass fibre where there are to be joints always fray out the edges since when overlapped the frayed edges will allow an almost undetectable joint to be made.
		Glass fibre can be cut with a Stanley knife, scissors or with a little practice torn which "builds in" the frayed edges.
		Once the glass fibre has been "wetted out", it is necessary to consolidate the two layers of glass fibre and this is done using a metal roller.

	In a Glass of its own
		Known as FRP or Fibre Glass Reinforced Plastic, fibre glass is made out of a raw material with the same name and then treated with chemicals to make it strong and durable.
		Fibre glass is available in varying thicknesses from 0.5 mm to 15 mm.
		Fibre glass is an interesting medium, for it can take any shape, colour or texture that you want it to.

	REINFORCEMENT FABRICS
		There are several different types of glass fibre - the one we usually use is called E-Glass - a description going to back to the early days when glass was used primarily for E-electrical insulation.
		A-Glass is a third type of glass, the lowest strength/quality often used in chopped strand matt for simple filling.
		Simply the fibres or tows of fibres all run in one direction, UD comes with a few weft threads of glass or aramid woven in or even some sort of backing material to keep them in order.

		Fibre Glass moulding sheets form a major outlet for Fibre Glass in India and are used along with asbestos, aluminium or galvanized corrugated sheets for lighting.
		Fibre Glass roofs are much lighter than concrete roofs and can be fabricated in different shapes, ornamental designs and with different degree of light transmission and colour intensity.
		Fibre Glass can even be made with wood grain texture recreated on the surface to appear more realistic than in melamine coated plywood products.

	E-Glass Fibre
		Continuous fibres can be drawn out through the holes and wound onto spindles, while short fibres may be produced by spinning the crown, which forces molten glass out through the holes centrifugally.
		Fibres are cut to length using mechanical means or air jets.
		Fibre dimension and to some extent properties can be controlled by the process variables such as melt temperature (hence viscosity) and drawing/spinning rate.

	CBC News:Ocean sponge can spin better fibre optics (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		The sponge adds traces of sodium to the glass fibres, which increase their ability to conduct light, something that can't be done at high temperatures, said Joanna Aizenburg, who led the research for Bell Labs.
		The glass fibres, or spicules, grow at the top and bottom of the sponge and appear to anchor the organism to the ocean floor.
		The fibres can grow from five to 20 cm long and are about the thickness of a human hair.

	Carbon Fibre - Material Spec and Selection (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		The glass fibre is used as a filling between layers of Carbon, this method of construction allows us to utilise the excellent strength and stiffness properties of Carbon fibre at the more critical outside surfaces of the part, whilst using the superior toughness and lower cost glass fibre as the centre to the sandwich.
		The percentage of Carbon to glass fibre varies for each material but CSC always presents good toughness and value with only a small weight penalty, In some applications this slight increase in weight is a positive advantage as for example in most chassis the extra weight helps with the stability of the car.
		The next stage is to lay the fibre and resin onto the tool and then whilst holding every thing in place by vacuum the whole thing is placed in an oven for final curing.

	The Fibre Optic Company (Lighting)
		The advent of HQI lamps made fibre optics a realistic and powerful lighting medium and in our staffs 15 years of manufacturing glass optical fibre light-guides there has been some pretty big advancements in projector technology and light fittings.
		We designed and manufactured a Linear fibre system using 100w MHR projectors and 200m of solid core side lit fibre, this system was unique as it incorporated both glass and polymer fibre elements.
		This website is designed to give insight into our most successful fibre optic lighting systems and hopefully give some intelligent illustration of the benefits and scope for fibre as an utterly fantastic lighting tool.

	Everlasting Fibre-glass Plastic
		Theoretically, the solution to this problem is evident: the cohesion among the reinforcing fibers and with the matrix should be strengthened.
		However, it is not so easily done in practice: glass as well as the polymer polyolefinic matrix are rather inert chemically, inertia being one of the most important advantages of these composites.
		They managed to chemically bond reinforcing glass fibers and the polymer matrix together, having initially modified fibre-glass surface and increased the surface concentration of silanol groups chemically reactive to finishing agents.

	Fibre Optic Basics
		The installation and termination of optical fibres used to be regarded as somewhat of a 'Black Art' but with standardization and easier terminating techniques this is no longer true.
		Because fibre is non-conductive, it can be used where electrical isolation is needed, for instance between buildings where copper cables would require cross bonding to eliminate differences in earth potentials.
		Loose tube fibre cable can be indoor or outdoor, or both, the outdoor cables usually have the tube filled with gel to act as a moisture barrier which stops the ingress of water.

		A sheet of fibre glass is laid over the mould and epoxy resin is brushed or sprayed over the fibre glass.
		The carbon fibres are woven into a cloth that is combined with a polymer resin in a process similar to the one for fibre glassing.
		Carbon fibre has a tensile strength three times greater than that of steel, but it is around four times as light (dense).

	ENGINEERS TAKE NEW LOOK AT STRENGTH OF INDUSTRIAL GLASS FIBRE
		Though the glass fibre industry is currently suffering the same economic woes as many other businesses, the time is right to lay the groundwork for future applications, said Prabhat K. Gupta, professor of materials science and engineering.
		The half-century-old glass, called E-glass, is the most popular type of fibreglass, and is often used to reinforce plastic and other materials.
		The method would be relatively easy to implement in industry, and involves holding a glass fibre at low temperatures and bending it until it breaks.

	The UK Cobra Club - Carbon Fibre Versus Fibre Glass ? (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		Carbon fibre can be wet laid or baked, and finding an oven big enough to bake a Cobra body might be a bit problematic, but as there are a number of boat builders near you, they might know of someone.
		Baked Carbon Fibre is far superior to Wet laid as it is impregnated with the correct amount of resin (Which goes off when heated).
		Wet laid carbon fibre requires the resin to be applied in a similar way to standard glass (With a brush or roller) - This method in most cases leaves excess amounts of resin (Which is the heavy element).

	Sculpting techniques for working with fibre glass
		Fibreglass is essentially composed of mats of thin glass fibre mixed with a chemical compound- the resin-which creates the strong structure which sculptures are cast in.
		The point is that the glass matting must be saturated and have a close contact with the resin, as it is the combination of these two elements which makes the strong fibreglass.
		Continue this process until you have at least five layers of resin and glass matting.
