History
Fiberglass is produced into several forms and utilized in a vast array of composite and industrial applications.
Composition
Large furnaces are used to melt silica sand, limestone, and various other minerals to liquid form.

Carbon sequestration, or carbon capture: the idea of polymer manufacturers using a supplier that provides plant-based raw materials, as plants capture carbon dioxide during their growth – rather than it being emitted into the atmosphere.
Polymers with bio-based content, specifically with raw materials derived from plants, are typically shown as negative carbon emissions because of the carbon dioxide consumption that occurs.
Globally, as of September 2023, almost 3,400 companies have set science-based goals – with 2,400 of those being net-zero commitments – in order to address greenhouse gas emission concerns (Science Based Targets).

Transitions from thick to thin areas should be gradual to prevent flow problems, back fills, and gas traps.
The spiral flow test is performed by injecting a material into a spiral mold (similar to a ribbon formed into a spiral).

During molding, longer fibers intertwine and align with polymer flow to form an internal skeletal network.
