		<description><![CDATA[Barium Titanate Glass Microspheres are excellent for use as a functional retro reflective additive  to paints and coatings.  Spheres with sizes of about 50 micron (~0.002 inches) mean diameter provide a small enough size for most coatings while offering a large enough size to reflective a significant amount of light.  Barium Titanate Glass Spheres are offered in both partially aluminum coated retro-reflective version for addition into transparent coatings, or as uncoated glass spherical powder for uses in colored paints.]]></description>

<ul>
	<li>Roundness is &#62;90%   (Soda lime &#62;85%)</li>
	<li>Density is the lowest of most glasses at 2.2g/cc  (Soda Lime 2.5g/cc)</li>
	<li>Very low thermal expansion coefficient  32x10<sup>-7</sup>/°C   (for 30-300°C)   (Soda Lime:  90x10<sup>-7</sup>/°C)</li>
</ul>
The high roundness, and low thermal expansion make borosilicate spheres an excellent candidate for use as spacers in epoxy bond lines, or other applications which require stability over a wide temperature range.]]></description>

wide variety of colors and with controlled fluorescence, opacity, 
specific gravity, particle size distribution, and electrostatic charge, 
presenting endless possibilities for use in developing and testing 
medical devices. To select the right microsphere for the job, one must 
rely on detailed knowledge of the application and on the technical 
judgment of those working on the project, and employ a simple 
trial-and-error approach.]]></description>
