Glass fiber composition, glass fiber and composite material therefrom

Abstract

The present invention provides a glass fiber composition, glass fiber and composite material therefrom. The glass fiber composition comprises the following components expressed as percentage by weight: 56-64% SiO2, 12-18% Al2O3, 0.1-1% Na2O, 0.1-1% K2O, 0.1-1% Fe2O3, 0.05-1% Li2O+Bi2O3, 19-25% CaO+MgO+SrO, 0.1-1.5% TiO2 and 0-1% CeO2, wherein a weight percentage ratio C1=Li2O/Bi2O3 is greater than 1, and a weight percentage ratio C2=(MgO+SrO)/CaO is 0.4-1, and a weight percentage ratio C3=MgO/(MgO+SrO) is greater than 0.7. Said composition reduces the amount of bubbles, viscosity and crystallization risk of the glass, thereby making it more suitable for large-scale production with refractory-lined furnaces.
