The materials employed for making hollow microspheres include inorganic materials such as glass and silica, and polymeric materials such as epoxy resin, unsaturated polyester resin, silicone resin, phenolics, polyvinyl alcohol, polyvinyl chloride, polyjM-opylene and polystyrene, among others, commercial jx oducts available are glass, silica, phenolics, epoxy resin, silicones, etc. Table 36 shows low-density hollow spheres. Table 37 shows physical properties of glass microspheres, and Table 38 shows comparison of some fillers on the physical properties of resulting foams (10). 

Schumacher and Slocum (7) presented papers regarding low-density urethane-foam composites to be used for automotive door trims. The physical properties of glass-fiber-reinforced urethane-foam composites are shown in Table 53.

Coolants. Underhood fluids also include water and antifreeze solutions. Physical properties of glass-reinforced plastics of all types deteriorate, sometimes drasticaFly, upon exposure to water at elevated temperatures. Bair and Miner of Bell Laboratories have recently studied the hydrolytic stability of PPS and glass-reinforced PPS using a calorimetric metnod (6)- The results which they obtained agree well with our data.

No useful purpose would be served by including in this book a detailed li.st of the chemical and physical properties of glasses. The testing conditions may vary appreciably, which makes it difficult to arrive at meaningful comparisons. Besides, all the specifications required are given in the catalogues of the glassware manufacturers [1 ]. 

Virtually all oxide glasses contain chemically bonded water in the form of various types of hydroxyl (Si-OH, Ge-OH, etc.), while other protonic species, including silanes (Si-H, Ge-H, etc.), or molecular hydrogen, may or may not be present. Since the effect of water on the optical and physical behavior of glasses is so important, discussion of these species merits a separate chapter. A detailed discussion of the formation of bound hydrogen species, their effect on the optical spectra and physical properties of glasses, and the diffusion and solubility of water in glasses and melts is found in Chapter 11. 

The physical properties of glass-ionomer cements are influenced by several factors, including powder liquid ratio, concentration of polyacid, particle size of the glass powder and age of the specimens. In addition, for hand-mixed cements, the experience of the operator has an influence, though the reasons for this are not completely clear [86], Care is needed therefore in making generalizations about properties and part of the success of glass-ionomers may arise because they perform satisfactorily even when not properly mixed, or allowed to mature under optimum conditions.
