As people's requirements for life are getting higher and higher, tempered glass comes into being and appears in different corners of life: the glass of doors and windows at home, automobile glass, etc. are many used tempered glass. What is the difference between tempered glass and ordinary glass? What are the characteristics of tempered glass? Today we are going to tell you about it!
What is tempered glass? What is the difference between tempered glass and ordinary glass?
Tempered glass is a glass after heat treatment, which is characterized by the formation of a compressive stress layer on the surface of the glass, the mechanical strength and thermal shock strength are improved, and it has a special fragmentation state.
The load-bearing capacity of tempered glass is about five times that of ordinary glass, but like other kinds of glass, it will shatter when affected by external forces such as bumps, scratches, etc. The edge of the tempered glass is the most sensitive and weakest part to external force. When the tempered glass is broken, it will make a loud noise, and the fragments will be granular and scattered everywhere. The shards of tempered glass will not have obvious sharp angles. Ordinary glass shatters into sharp shards that can cause serious injury.
Why does tempered glass self-explode?
Due to the influence of external force during transportation, handling or use of tempered glass products, there is a certain probability of self-explosion and breaking. There is compressive stress on the surface of tempered glass and tensile stress inside. Once local damage occurs due to the influence of external force, the stress will be released, and the result is that the tempered glass is broken.
Are our tempered glass products safe? What measures will we take to prevent self-explosion of tempered glass products?
Yes, we always regard product quality, especially product safety standards, as the most important indicators, and strictly implement the product quality standards of each retailing country and the European Union. However, it is one of the inherent characteristics of tempered glass to cause self-explosion due to external forces such as collisions and scratches.
At present, the measures we take to prevent tempered glass from breaking are: 1. When we find any factors that may lead to the production of unqualified products during the production process, the entire batch of related glass products will be destroyed. 2. Our packaging designed for glass products can provide effective protection for the products during transportation to customers.
What should customers do if they have concerns about the safety of our tempered glass products?
There is no need for customers to worry about safety when using our tempered glass products. Any customer with concerns about our products can contact us.
