Hollow plastic microspheres made from thermoplastic or thermosetting plastic compositions are described. The hollow plastic microspheres can be used as filler materials in plastics, in plastic foam compositions and in concrete and asphalt compositions. The hollow plastic microspheres can be made from low heat conductivity plastic compositions and blown with a low heat conductivity gas and used to make improved insulation materials and composites and insulating systems. The hollow plastic microspheres can be made to contain a thin transparent or reflective metal coating deposited on the inner wall surface of the microspheres by adding to the blowing gas small dispersed metal particles and/or gases of organo metal compounds and decomposing the organo metal compounds. The hollow plastic microspheres can also be made in the form of filamented plastic microspheres with a thin plastic filament connecting adjacent plastic microspheres.
Hollow organic film forming material microspheres having a diameter of 200 to 10,000 microns and having a wall thickness of 0.1 to 1,000 microns, wherein said microspheres are free of latent solid or liquid blowing gas materials or gases and the walls of said microspheres are substantially free of holes, relatively thinned wall portions or sections and bubbles.
Hollow organic film forming material microspheres of substantially uniform diameter of 500 to 6,000 microns and of substantially uniform wall thickness of 0.5 to 400 microns, wherein said microspheres are free of latent solid or liquid blowing gas materials or gases and the walls of said microspheres are substantially free of holes, relatively thinned wall portions or sections and bubbles.
Filamented, hollow organic film forming material microspheres having a diameter of 200 to 10,000 microns and having a wall thickness of 0.1 to 1000 microns, wherein said microspheres are connected to each other by filament portions which are continuous with the microspheres and are of the same organic film forming material from which the microspheres are made.
Filamented, hollow organic film forming material microspheres having a diameter of 500 to 6000 microns and having a wall thickness of 0.5 to 400 microns, wherein said microspheres are connected to each other by filament portions which are continuous with the microspheres and are of the same organic film forming material from which the microspheres are made.
