Results of thermal plasma in-flight treatment of reclaimed glass powders from fluorescent lamps, by injection into the discharge of an inductively coupled plasma torch, for various operating conditions and injection probe positions, are presented. The spherical pow-ders obtained have been analyzed to verify if the plasma treatment can induce modification in mineralogical and physical characteristics and in chemical composition. They have been then introduced in thermoplastic polymers in place of industrial glass spheres, and the results are compared to each others in order to verify the differences in materials properties.
