The present invention relates to fiber glass strands, yarns, fabrics, composites, prepregs, laminates, fiber-metal laminates, and other products incorporating glass fibers formed from glass compositions. The glass fibers, in some embodiments, are incorporated into composites that can be used in reinforcement applications. Glass fibers formed from some embodiments of the glass compositions can have certain desirable properties that can include, for example, desirable electrical properties (e.g. low D) or desirable mechanical properties (e.g., specific strength).

Low density and high strength fiber glass for reinforcement applications

The present invention relates to fabrics, composites, prepregs, laminates, and other products incorporating glass fibers formed from glass compositions. The glass fibers, in some embodiments, are incorporated into composites that can be adapted for use in high energy impact applications such as ballistic or blast resistance applications. Glass fibers formed from some embodiments of the glass compositions can have certain desirable properties that can include, for example, desirable electrical properties (e.g. low D) or desirable mechanical properties (e.g., specific strength).

Low density and high strength fiber glass for ballistic applications

Glass compositions are provided that are useful in a variety of applications including, for example, electronics applications, reinforcement applications, and others. Some embodiments of glass compositions can provide desirable dielectric constants, desirable dissipation factors, and/or desirable mechanical properties while also having desirable fiber forming properties.

Low dielectric glass and fiber glass

Glass compositions are provided that are useful in electronic applications, e.g., as reinforcements in printed circuit board substrates. Reduced dielectric constants are provided relative to E-glass, and fiber forming properties are provided that are more commercially practical than D-glass.

Low dielectric glass and fiber glass for electronic applications

The present invention relates to materials comprising organic-inorganic polymeric networks. In some embodiments, the present invention provides an organic-inorganic composite material comprising an inorganic metal oxide matrix interpenetrating with a polymeric phase. Additionally, the present invention provides methods of producing organic-inorganic composite materials.
