Q-Cel® 6048 is a hollow, engineered glass microsphere. This product has a tamped bulk density of 0.27 g/cc and an average particle size of 50 microns.

Spheriglass® solid glass spheres are a performance additive for thermoplastic and thermosetting resin systems. Technical and economic advantages include enhanced processing and reduced manufacturing costs. The material characteristics enable use in applications in the transportation, automotive, chemical, electronic, industrial, and engineering industries. Potters Industries is the world’s leading supplier of glass spheres with resources to provide excellent technical assistance

Sphericel® 110P8 is a white-colored, fused borosilicate glass in a hollow microsphere form.

Q-Cel® Lightweight series products have a density approximately one-fifth of most thermoset resins. On an equal weight basis, the Q-Cel® hollow spheres occupy about five times more volume than an equivalent weight of resin, which can reduce compound weight and cost. They can replace heavy fillers, such as calcium carbonate, talc and clays, thus lowering the weight of composite materials. Spheres have the lowest surface area of any filler type, thus the lowest resin demand. Lower viscosities are common, allowing less resin to be used, usually resulting in cost savings in many applications. Q-Cel® 6014® is recommended for castings applications with polyesters, urethanes, PVC plastisol, and other systems where low viscosity and low shear processing conditions are used.
