Glass flakes

The second method is the "centrifuge method",[3] in which high-temperature liquid glass in a rotating tub creates glass flakes due to the centrifugal force.

Glass flakes can be applied in anti-corrosive coatings, paints and pigments to prevent corrosion.

[6] Glassflakes or glass flake particles form dense, inert barriers within the paint film.

Overlapping layers of glass resist water and chemicals permeating the paint film.

The addition of glass also increases the flexibility, hardness and abrasion resistance of coatings.
