Definition

Glass beads are small, spherical particles made from various types of glass. They are widely used in industrial and commercial applications due to their unique properties, such as uniformity, durability, and reflectivity. They can be solid or hollow and are produced through a process that involves melting glass and forming it into spherical shapes.

Properties

Durability: Glass beads are resistant to wear and corrosion, making them suitable for long-term use.

Uniformity: They have consistent size and shape, which enhances precision in applications.

Reflectivity: Many glass beads have a high refractive index, making them highly reflective.

Eco-Friendly: Often made from recycled glass, glass beads are an environmentally friendly option.
