Types and characteristics of glass

The types of glass are divided into flat glass and special glass according to the scope. Flat glass is also flat glass, and there is no difference between them. The difference between them lies in the thickness, which determines its scope of application. There are many kinds of special glasses. Let's take a closer look at their characteristics:

tempered glass

The strength of tempered glass is several times that of flat glass, the tensile strength is more than three times that of flat glass and the impact resistance is more than five times that of flat glass. Therefore, tempered glass is not easy to break, even if it is broken, it is broken in the form of particles, and there is no acute angle, which greatly reduces the harm to human body.

ground glass

Frosted glass is frosted by ordinary flat glass. Generally, the thickness is less than 9 cm, and the thickness of 5 and 6 cm is more.

ground glass

The performance of sandblasted glass is basically similar to that of frosted glass, except that frosted glass is sandblasted. Because of its visual similarity, many owners and even decoration professionals confuse it.

patterned glass

Embossed glass is a kind of flat glass made by calendering. Its biggest feature is that it is light-tight and light-tight, and it is mostly used in decoration areas such as bathrooms.

armoured glass

Laminated glass is a kind of impact-resistant flat glass, which is made of metal wire or metal mesh embedded in the glass plate by calendering. When hit, it will only form radial cracks and will not fall and hurt people. Therefore, it is mostly used in high-rise buildings and factories with strong vibration.

hollow glass

Insulating glass is mostly made of two pieces of glass bonded at a certain interval, with dry air in the interval and sealed with sealing material around, which is mainly used in decoration projects with sound insulation requirements.

Laminated glass

Some people also call laminated glass bulletproof glass, which generally consists of two ordinary flat glasses (tempered glass or other special glass) and an organic adhesive layer between the glasses. When it is damaged, the debris is still attached to the adhesive layer, which avoids the damage of debris splashing to human body. Mostly used in decoration projects with safety requirements.

Fuyao glass

Among the above glasses, tempered glass is the best choice, because its safety and impact strength are several times higher than other glasses. Fuyao can be considered as a brand of glass. Most of the glass of this brand is used in automobile glass, and great efforts have been made in material, so Fuyao glass is chosen to buy brand glass with good material.
