From the supplier: Glass or glass ceramic matrices reinforced with lengthy fibers of carbon or silicon carbide make up fiber-reinforced glass (FRG) composites. These composites are resistant to thermal shock, impact and wear and are lighter than steel, but equally strong as most steel grades. FRG components are currently utilized for handling molten aluminum or hot glass during manufacturing processes. Research is being conducted on FRG's possible future use as an engineering material in several markets, such as the semiconductor and aerospace industries.
