    Glass Fibre

    Uploaded by

    Faizal Halim
    Glass fiber is a strong, temperature resistant, and corrosion resistant material that is commonly used as a reinforcing material. It is made through a spinning process where molten glass is pulled through a nozzle. Common applications of glass fiber include use in automotive and boat bodies, sporting goods, wind turbine blades, architectural features, tanks, broadcasting antennas, and velomobiles.
