<p>The glass compositions of the present invention contain a limited amount of Al2O3 and MgO resulting in a glass fiber having an acceptable chemical durability for product performance while providing a relatively high biosolubility. The composition includes an amount of BaO which improves fiber durability while controlling viscosity and other processing parameters. The compositions further include amounts of Na2O, K2O, and CaO, which have the effect of increasing fiber biosolubility and allows for the use of reduced amounts of Al2O3 and MgO in the composition. The glass compositions of the present invention have KI values that generally equal or exceed a KI value of 40 and are suitable for rotary processing. The compositions have liquidus temperatures below about 1600 °F, and have a ΔT (T at 1000 Poise-liquidus T) of at least 130 °F.</p> |
