Road reflective glass beads are a kind of fine glass sphere formed by melting glass sand (waste glass) at high temperatures. It is spherical under the microscope, colorless, transparent, and the refractive index is 1.5-1.64.

Road marking glass beads play a very important role in road safety, they are mixed or dropped on paint to reflect light back to the driver especially in the dark or poor weather conditions. When the car light shines on the marking, the glass beads will reflective, and make the marking very clear.

Blasting glass beads will be shot on the surface of objects under pressure of compressed gas with high pressure and high speed, the surface of objects will be burnished or the interior stress will be a relief.

Shot blasting glass beads as an abrasive material has the following advantages over any other abrasive material: in addition to metal abrasive materials, longer than any other medium, made of non-alkaline soda-lime glass material, with Good chemical stability, will not pollute the processed metal, can accelerate cleaning, while maintaining the processing accuracy of the original object.

Glass beads are good blasting and abrasive media which can be used in an industrial area, For cleaning, finishing, peening and deburring applications. This media generally gives a brighter matte finish.

The raw material of the glass beads is glass sand, which is fused into a spherical shape by high-temperature suspension and then annealed to eliminate internal stress and prevent breakage. This transparent, clear spherical structure product does not have particles embedded in the workpiece during use, contaminating the workpiece or causing other damage. Using different sizes of abrasives and different operating parameters, the glass beads will have a special decorative effect by selective localized controlled blasting on the surface of the workpiece.
