Tempered glass is a general term for glass products that are strengthened and have good mechanical resistance and heat resistance. Tempered glass is usually used in the doors and windows of glass buildings or the doors and windows of cars, but it can also be used in home decoration, so let's share with you the classification and characteristics of tempered glass and the selection criteria of tempered glass, so that you can have more awareness

Tempered glass classification and characteristics:

Classification of tempered glass

1. Tempered glass is divided into flat tempered glass and curved tempered glass according to shape.

Generally, the thickness of flat tempered glass is 3.4, 4.5, 5, 5.5, 6, 7.6., 8, 9.2, 11, 12, 15, 19mm; the thickness of curved tempered glass also has 3.4, 4.5, 5.5, 7.6, 9.2, 11, There are eight types of 15mm and 19mm. The thickness after processing depends on the equipment and technology of each manufacturer. But curved (ie curved tempered) tempered glass has a maximum arc limit for each thickness. That is, the RR is usually referred to as the radius.

2. Tempered glass is divided into: flat tempered and curved tempered according to its appearance.

3. Tempered glass is divided into: superior products and qualified products according to its flatness. High-quality tempered glass is used for car windshields; qualified products are used for architectural decoration.

Features of tempered glass

1. Security

When the glass is damaged by external force, the fragments will become honeycomb-like small obtuse particles, which are not easy to cause harm to the human body.

2. High strength

The impact strength of tempered glass with the same thickness is 3 to 5 times that of ordinary glass, and the bending strength is 3 to 5 times that of ordinary glass.

3. Thermal stability

Tempered glass has good thermal stability, the temperature difference that can withstand is 3 times that of ordinary glass, and it can withstand a temperature difference of 200 °C.
