Cenospheres have a variety of applications:
1.Cenospheres are hard and rigid, light, waterproof, innoxious, and insulative. This makes them highly useful in a variety of products, notably?fillers.
2.Cenospheres are now used as fillers in?cement?to produce low-density?concrete.
3.Recently, some manufacturers have begun filling metals and polymers with cenospheres to make lightweight?composite materials?with higher strength than other types of?foam?materials. Such composite materials are called syntactic foam. Aluminum-based syntactic foams are finding applications in the?automotive?sector.
4.Silver-coated cenospheres are used in?conductive?coatings, tiles and fabrics.
5.Another use is in conductive?paints?for?antistatic?coatings and?electromagnetic shielding.
