Have you chosen the right tempered glass?

Is the tempered glass you chose safe enough?

Tempered glass can be seen everywhere in our daily life, such as high-rise building doors and windows, glass curtain walls, indoor partition glass, lighting ceilings, sightseeing elevator passages, furniture, glass guardrails, etc., all use tempered glass, that is, safety glass.


Why is tempered glass safe?

Tempered glass is a kind of prestressed glass. To improve the strength of glass, chemical or physical methods are generally used to form compressive stress on the surface of the glass. When the glass is subjected to external force, the surface stress is first offset, and then the bearing capacity is improved, and the wind pressure resistance, cold and heat resistance, impact resistance, etc. of the glass itself are enhanced.

The characteristics of tempered glass itself are transparent and cut, and when broken, it forms slippery fragments, which reduces the damage to people. Tempered glass is also processed from flexible glass. It is processed by quenching or air-cooling quenching. It is safer than ordinary glass. This is also the reason why tempered glass is used more and more.

 

There are several ways to identify real tempered glass:

1. The surface of tempered glass is not as smooth and reflective as ordinary glass. This is because the surface of tempered glass is rough and bumpy.

2. The hardness and strength of tempered glass are higher than those of ordinary glass.

3. Check the production date and technical conditions of the product, the company name, and the logo number. If they are all available, it is produced by a regular company and the safety is reliable.

In my country, the material introducing U-shaped glass appeared in the late 1970s. Because glass manufacturers and relevant construction departments are very unfamiliar with this type of glass, this new type of architectural glass has not been developed, let alone promoted and applied. With the continuous development of my country's national economy and the continuous improvement of people's living standards, with the joint efforts of my country's construction and decoration planning departments, production departments, and circulation fields, this new type of architectural glass will surely be promoted and applied in my country and achieve rapid development.
