Abstract
The influence of temperature on the room temperature strength of glass fibres was studied. Samples of fibres were heated at various temperatures in the range of 150°F to 550°F and in two types of atmosphere, one inert and the other normal air. A reduction in strength was first detected for fibres annealed at 270°F-300°F, this reduction increasing with increasing temperature. Statistical tests were applied to the data to determine the significance of the reduction. No significant difference was found between fibres annealed in the inert atmosphere and fibres annealed in air.
