Abstract
A method for making glass microspheres by the sol-gel process has been developed. Porous silica microspheres were produced at temperatures as low as 500 °C and densified silica microspheres were prepared at 800 °C. The size of the microspheres was controlled by adjusting the feed rate of the raw materials and the frequency of the droplet generator so that uniform spheres were obtained. Glass microspheres prepared by this method were characterized by Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR), Differential Thermal Analysis (DTA), Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA), and optical microscopy.
