ABSTRACT:
A method of manufacturing a polygonal glass fiber is disclosed. According to an embodiment of the present invention, a glass in a melted state is poured into a dividable polygonal slit having a cross section 5 to 20 times larger than a finally required cross section of a glass fiber to be made, and the glass poured into the slit is drawn so as to make a polygonal glass fiber. According to another embodiment of the present invention, a glass in a melted state is passed through a twin roller having a required cross section so as to make a polygonal glass fiber.
