Glass-filled polymer

Glass-filled polymer (or glass-filled plastic), is a mouldable composite material. It comprises short glass fibers in a matrix of a polymer material. It is used to manufacture a wide range of structural components by injection or compression moulding.[1] It is an ideal glass alternative that offers flexibility in the part, chemical resistance, shatter resistance and overall better durability.[2]
