Umlingo njengawe - i-fiberglass!

Ngasekupheleni kwawo-1920, ngesikhathi sokucindezeleka okukhulu e-United States, uhulumeni wakhipha uMthetho omangalisayo: ukwenqatshelwa. Ukwenqatshelwa kwathatha iminyaka engu-14, futhi abakhiqizi bamabhodlela ewayini babesenkingeni ngokulandelana. Inkampani yakwa-Owens Illinois yayingumkhiqizi omkhulu wamabhodlela engilazi e-United States ngaleso sikhathi. Ingabuka kuphela iziko lengilazi licisha. Ngalesi sikhathi, indoda ehloniphekile, i-gameslayer, kwenzeka yadlula esithandweni sengilazi futhi yathola ukuthi ingilazi ewuketshezi echithekile yayivuthelwe ibe yifayibha. Imidlalo ibonakala sengathi i-Newton yashaywa ekhanda nge-apula, futhiingilazi fiberubesesiteji somlando kusukela ngaleso sikhathi.
Ngemva konyaka, kwagqashuka iMpi Yezwe Yesibili, futhi izinto ezivamile zaziyindlala. Ukuze kuhlangatshezwane nezidingo zokulungela ukulwa kwezempi, i-glass fiber yaba esikhundleni.
Abantu bathola kancane kancane ukuthi le nto encane inezinzuzo eziningi - isisindo esilula, amandla aphezulu, ukwahlukanisa okuhle, ukugcinwa kokushisa nokushisa ukushisa. Ngakho-ke, amathangi, izindiza, izikhali, ama-bulletproof vest nokunye konke kusebenzisa i-glass fiber.
I-fiber yengilazikuyinto entsha ye-inorganicizinto ezingezona ezensimbi, eyenziwe ngamaminerali emvelo afana ne-kaolin, i-pyrophyllite, isihlabathi se-quartz kanye ne-limestone ngokusebenzisa izinqubo eziningana ezifana nokuncibilika kwezinga lokushisa eliphezulu, umdwebo wezintambo kanye nokujika ngokuvumelana nefomula ethile. Ububanzi bayo be-monofilament buphakathi kwama-microns amaningana nama-microns angaphezu kuka-20, okulingana no-1 / 20-1 / 5 we-filament yezinwele. Inqwaba ngayinye ye-fiber precursor yakhiwe ngamakhulu noma izinkulungwane zama-monofilaments.

Imboni yengilazi yaseShayina yefayibha yavuka ngo-1958. Ngemva kweminyaka engu-60 yentuthuko, ngaphambi kwezinguquko nokuvula, yayisebenzela umkhakha wezokuvikela kazwelonke kanye nezempi, yabe isiphendukela ekusetshenzisweni komphakathi, futhi yazuza intuthuko esheshayo.
