Experiment Raw materials.
Calculate the required amount of raw materials according to the composition of Table 2, weigh accurately a variety of raw materials using an electronic balance, then pour the material into a mortar, grind adequately to make smaller particles and mixed well, place the mixed powder in a 30ml corundum crucible, put them into box-type resistance furnace, melting at 4˚C /min heating rate, heated to 1250˚C, holding 3h, then pour the well clarified molten glass into 20˚C water for water quenching, collect the water quenched glass particles and grind with a ball mill after natural drying, get glass powder for later use[5].
Will in the general case, the material which it's thermal conductivity lower than 0.233 W/(m·K) in room temperature(20˚C) called insulation materials.

Ultra-precision machining technology is the development direction of modern manufacturing science, mechanical properties and deformation damage mechanism of processed materials on the micro/nano scale directly affects the machining surface quality.
As a plastic damage model Johnson-Holmquist can effectively simulate the brittle materials such as ceramics and glass.
The hydrostatic pressure of not damage materials can be expressed as, where .In the process of scratching material pressure increases with the damage, the elastic energy can be converted to the static water potential energy through the elastic energy loss coefficient .

MSNs can be defined as silica materials that have porosity and the particles are within nanometer range.
Furthermore, the melting point of both materials are below the water’s boiling point which further confirm that both materials are ILs.
