Abstract :
Glass microspheres are fabricated using the powders floating method and characterized by differential thermal analysis (DTA), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning election microscope (SEM). Research results indicate that the optimal annealing temperature of glass microspheres is 590degC, glass microspheres have better surface qualities and can be used in many field.
