Verfahren zum Verbinden von Hohlglaskugeln

摘要

A method for bonding together adjoining hollow glass spheres to form an acoustic matching member for a transducer comprises subjecting a mixture of adjoining spheres and a solution of a heat curable resin and a volatile organic solvent to a first temperature to drive off the solvent and then to a second temperature to cure the resin. This causes the spheres (6) to bond together at their points of contact but otherwise voids (7) are formed between the spheres (6).
