Discussion
Consider the following statements about glass fibre.
1. Continuous filament is drawn through bushings from the melt.
2. Insulation wool is made by spinning or blowing the melt.
3. Both types are annealed in a lehr after forming.
Answer: C
Correct answer: 1 and 2 only
Statements 1 and 2 describe the two products correctly: continuous filament is drawn through platinum bushings and wound, while insulation wool is made by flinging or blowing the melt into short fibres. Statement 3 is wrong - fibres are so fine that they cool essentially instantly and uniformly, so no stress gradient develops and no lehr is needed. Annealing is for articles thick enough to cool unevenly.
