Glass is pulverized into a very thin powder called glass powder. It is frequently offered by glass and industrial supply companies and can be used in a variety of industrial and craft applications.
To prepare it, high precision machining equipment is required since it must be extremely uniform and consistent. Depending on the applications and the degree of grinding, prices change.
The workability of polymer concrete was boosted using waste glass powder. Strengthening the compressive and flexural properties was waste glass powder.
The Global glass powders market accounted for $XX Billion in 2023 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2024 to 2030.
Tennessee-based Vitro Minerals announced the completion and opening of a recycled glass powder factory. The glass powders are intended to offer an alternative to conventionally mined mineral fillers and extenders including calcium carbonate, clay, silica, and nepheline syenite that is 100% recyclable and devoid of crystalline silicon.
To produce glass powders with good particle size control and brightness standards comparable to conventional mineral fillers, Vitro Minerals is said to have developed a variety of post-consumer and post-industrial glass sources and novel processing techniques.
The resulting glass powders can be used as reasonably priced functional fillers in concrete, polymers, adhesives, and sealants. Powders with particle sizes ranging from 0.5 microns to 500 microns are offered in a variety of glass chemistries.
Glass powders offer a reduced weight, corrosion/abrasion resistant filler for polymer systems that also have the added benefit of being recycled material because they are free of crystalline silica.
