| abstract |
An embodiment of a sizing composition for glass fibers comprises a starch, a nonionic lubricant, and a silane comprising at least one amine and at least one aryl or arylene group. Embodiments of fiber glass strands comprise at least one glass fiber at least partially coated with a sizing composition of the present invention. Embodiments of fiber glass strands can have tensile strengths that make the fiber glass strands desirable for certain processes, applications, and/or end uses. |
