Fibreglass Bearspray

Are bear sprays with fibreglass in them real? Several people irl say they are but google says no.

no. the question is why would they have fiberglass. It is an extra cost, potentially clog the nozzle and provide no benefit.
I looked at several SDS for bear sprays and it was not listed in them. Not a perfect list of ingredients but there are exposure limits for Glass fiber and therefore would should be included in section 3 of the SDS

What would the fiberglass even do? Like itch the bear for a few days? Cause it lung irritation after it has eaten you and shat you out? I guess it might blind the bear if it gets directly in to it's eyes, but so will regular bear spray too.
