Why on earth should this article be merged with glass reinforced plastic? They are two separate chemical entities. A section added to the Fiberglass article about its uses in plastic might be appropriate but that's it. Pschemp 03:31, 24 Nov 2004 (UTC)
I wrote the original article with the word ADSORB because glass is incapable of ABSORBing moisture. Def of ADSORB: the adhesion in an extremely thin layer of molecules (as of gases, solutes, or liquids) to the surfaces of solid bodies or liquids with which they are in contact -- so the person who edited adsorb to absorb was incorrect. Water molecules do not generally absorb into glass fibers. In order to do that, the molecules would have to enter the fiber. Glass is too rigid for this and can only adsorb water.
