“…Pereira et al [100] pointed out that the use of HGM composites in the fabrication of reactors is a way to lower costs and make large scale outdoor microalgae production feasible. HGMs were demonstrated to be a promising hydrogen storage material with many advantages over other hydrogen storage techniques and the raw materials for the HGMs production are generally recycled culets and so are cost effective and need low energy usage for production according to the work paper of Dalai et al [101]. In the study of Sun et al [102], TiO 2 nanoparticles were successfully coated on the HGMs surface in the form of core-shell structure by solgel method.…”

Glass microspheres are microscopic spheres of glass manufactured for a wide variety of uses in thermal insulation coating, putty, plastic casting polyester, radome, synthetic foam, adhesives, printed circuit board substrate, bowling, fan blades, and caulking materials, emulsion explosives, golf, sealant, pipeline insulation materials, artificial marble, PVC, low density oil drilling, light cement etc. Glass microspheres are usually between 1 and 1000 micrometres in diameter, although the sizes can range from 100 nanometres to 5 millimetres in diameter. Microspheres are spherical particles that can be distinguished into two categories; solid or hollow. This paper presented a general overview of glass microspheres.

“…These properties make them advantageous in aviation and the automotive industry, 34 and construction. [35][36][37] GM are also considered for hydrogen storage, 30,[38][39][40][41] energy-saving applications (thermal insulation), and also as luminescent or reflective materials. [42][43][44] Recently GM have proven to be versatile biomaterials.…”

“…The hollow glass microsphere (HGM) is another important inorganic filler which is recently getting great attraction in various industrial fields. It is made of inner inert gas and outer stiff glass, having some advantages such as a low thermal conductivity coefficient and light weight . There are also many studies called synthetic foams, in which HGMs are dispersed in polymer matrix .…”

Polypropylene (PP) nanocomposites have been widely researched for last decade due to its high mechanical property and multiple usages in various industrial fields from automobile to consumer packaging. Dispersion of nanoclay in polyethylene and PP is the key factor due to their hydrophobic property. Adding surfactant or introducing a polymer with a functional group, and modifying a natural clay with organic ions have been tried to achieve the better dispersion of clay in polymer matrix. In this study, the PP/clay nanocomposite with maleic anhydride grafted PP and hollow glass microspheres (HGMs) at various compositions were prepared and characterized. The addition of HGMs to PP/clay nanocomposites significantly improved the tensile stress at yield point except 7 wt % of HGMs. It is assumed that this could be due to not only the reinforcing effect of HGMs in PP, but the crushing effect of HGMs on the clay resulting in interlayer increase of clay as well. The barrier properties was also found to be improved about 32% max resulting from the better dispersion and presence of HGMs. It could be assumed that the HGMs could act as a ball creating a ball milling crush force to achieve the better dispersion of clay in the polymer and improve nanocomposite performance. © 2018 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
