Spinning nonfused glass fibers from an aqueous dispersion

Claim 1

THE METHOD OF PREPARING A GLASS FIBER AT ROOM TEMPERATUE FROM A STABLE HETEROGENOUS AQUEOUS SYRUP WHICH INCLUDES THE STEPS OF MIXING AT ROOM TEMPERATURE A DISPERSION OF GLASS-FORMING METAL OXIDES HAVING A PARTICLE SIZE WITHIN THE RANGE FROM 5 TO 140 MICRONS WITH A DISPERSION OF COLLOIDAL SILICA HAVING A PARTICLE SIZE LESS THAN 1 MICRON, ADDING TO THE RESULTING MIXTURE LESS THAN 2% BY WEIGHT BASED ON THE METAL OXIDE PARTICLES OF TRANSFORMING AGENT COMPRISING ABOUT 3.2% RUBBER FROM LATEX, ABOUT 1.3% ACRYLATE AND VINYL MATERIAL COMPRISING POLYVINYL ALCOHOL, POLYVINYL ACETATE, POLYMETHACRYLIC ACID AND COPOLYMERS, ABOUT 0.65% POLYSILIOXANE MATERIAL ABOUT 0.072% METHYL SILICONATE MATERIAL, ABOUT 1.5% AMMONIUM ACETATE, AND ABOUT 92.25% OF A THREE PERCENT AQUEOUS AMMONIUM HYDROXIDE SOLUTION, EXTRUDING A FINE DIAMETER STREAM OF SAID SOLUTION INTO A GAS SPACE TO BRING ABOUT DEHYDRATION AGGREGATION NEAR THE POINT OF WITHDRAWAL OF THE STREAM FROM THE SOLUTION INTO THE GAS SPACE WHEREBY A GLASS FIBER IS FORMED, AND SURROUNDING SAID GLASS FIBER THUS FORMED WITH AN ELECTRO-STATIC FIELD OF EXERT LINES OF FORCE GENERALLY PARALLEL TO THE LINEAR DIMENSION OF THE GLASS FIBER.
