Abstract

The present invention relates to reinforcing glass yarns, the composition of which comprises the following constituents within the limits defined hereinbelow, expressed in percentages by weight: ______________________________________ SiO.sub.2 58 to 62% Al.sub.2 O.sub.3 10 to 16% CaO more than 18% MgO more than 1.5% CaO + MgO less than 28% Na.sub.2 O + K.sub.2 O + Li.sub.2 O less than 2% TiO.sub.2 less than 1.5% Fe.sub.2 O.sub.3 less than 0.5% B.sub.2 O.sub.3 less than 2% F.sub.2 less than 2% ______________________________________ this composition furthermore comprising less than 1% of other constituent(s) and comprising more than 0.5% of at least one of the three components F.sub.2, B.sub.2 O.sub.3 and Li.sub.2 O. These yarns have a composition providing an excellent compromise between its cost and its fiberizability.
