Abstract
Differential thermal analysis techniques were used to characterize and identify the sizings used to manufacture E and AR glass fibers. Altho ugh the use of a nitrogen atmosphere makes it possible to perform a te mperature scan from -70 to 500 degrees C, the changes produced at temp eratures between -70 and +70 degrees C were observed and analyzed in t his study. The sizings characterizing the E glass fibers were more sta ble and less sensitive to aging than those characterizing the AR glass as was confirmed by granulometric analyses.
