2. Fiberglass - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fiberglass

   Glass reinforcements used for fiberglass are supplied in different physical forms: microspheres, chopped or woven glass cloth. Unlike glass fibers used for insulation, for the final structure to be strong, the fiber's surfaces must be almost entirely free of defects, as this permits the fibers to reach gigapascal tensile strengths. If a bulk ...

4. Glass fiber - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glass_fiber

   Glass-reinforced plastic (GRP) is a composite material or fiber-reinforced plastic made of a plastic reinforced by fine glass fibers. The glass can be in the form of a chopped strand mat (CSM) or a woven fabric. [6] [26]

5. FR-4 - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FR-4

   FR-4 is a composite material composed of woven fiberglass cloth with an epoxy resin binder that is flame resistant (self-extinguishing). "FR" stands for "flame retardant", and does not denote that the material complies with the standard UL94V-0 unless testing is performed to UL 94, Vertical Flame testing in Section 8 at a compliant lab.
