High thermal expansion glass composites and uses thereof

DWPI Title: Filled glass composite preparation involves providing glass matrix in powder form, adding particle filler to mixture for forming mixture, and then thermally treating mixture to form filled glass composite
Abstract: The present invention relates to glass composites, including filled glass composites and uses thereof. In particular examples, the composites provide improved thermal expansion characteristics. Also described are methods of forming such composites, such as by adding a particle filler to a glass mixture.
Use: Method for preparing filled glass composite.
Advantage: The method prepares the filled glass composite in a simple, cost-effective and eco-friendly manner with improved microstructure and property control, enhance process robustness, and lower reactivity with stainless steel.
Novelty: Filled glass composite preparation involves providing a glass matrix in a powder form, adding 10-60 wt.% particle filler to the mixture for forming a mixture, and then thermally treating the mixture to form the filled glass composite.
