Functionalized microspheres for being dispersed in matrix materials to reduce the density and weight of the materials may be configured to include a covalently bound surface component which is configured to covalently bond with the matrix material so that when combined with the matrix material a strong, light-weight matrix material may be produced. 1. A functionalized microsphere for reducing a density of a structural matrix material , the functionalized microsphere comprising:at least one anchoring group covalently bonded to a surface of the microsphere;at least one functional group configured to covalently bond with the structural matrix material;a linking component covalently bonding the at least one anchoring group with the at least one functional group; anda fill material within the microsphere, wherein the microsphere with the fill material has a lower density when compared to the structural matrix material into which the microsphere will be incorporated.2.
