In order to meet various needs in production and life, people carry out deep processing on ordinary flat glass. The main categories are:
1. Tempered glass. It is a kind of prestressed glass that is reprocessed from ordinary flat glass. Compared with ordinary flat glass, tempered glass has two major characteristics:
(1) The strength of the former is several times that of the latter, the tensile strength is more than 3 times that of the latter, and the impact resistance is more than 5 times that of the latter.
(2) Tempered glass is not easily broken. Even if it is broken, it will break into particles without sharp angles, which greatly reduces the damage to the human body.
2. Frosted glass. It is also frosted on ordinary flat glass. Generally, the thickness is mostly below 9 centimeters, with the majority being 5 or 6 centimeters thick.
3. Sandblasted glass. The performance is basically similar to frosted glass, but the difference is that frosting is changed to sandblasting. Because the two are visually similar, many homeowners and even renovation professionals confuse them.
4. Patterned glass. It is a kind of flat glass made by rolling method. Its biggest feature is that it is light-transmitting and opaque, and it is often used in decoration areas such as bathrooms.
5. Wired glass. It is a kind of impact-resistant flat glass made by using the rolling method to embed metal wire or metal mesh in the glass plate. When it is hit, it will only form radial cracks and will not cause injury when it falls. Therefore, it is mostly used in high-rise buildings and factories with strong vibration.
6. Hollow glass. Gluing is often used to keep two pieces of glass at a certain distance. The gap is filled with dry air, and the surrounding area is sealed with sealing materials. It is mainly used in decoration projects with sound and heat insulation requirements.
7. Laminated glass. Laminated glass is generally composed of two pieces of ordinary flat glass (it can also be tempered glass or other special glass) and an organic adhesive layer between the glasses. When damaged, the fragments still adhere to the adhesive layer, preventing damage to the human body from splashing fragments. It is mostly used in decoration projects with safety requirements.
8. Bulletproof glass. It is actually a type of laminated glass, but the glass is mostly made of higher strength tempered glass, and the number of interlayers is relatively large. It is mostly used in decoration projects with very high safety requirements such as banks or luxury homes.
9. Hot-bent glass. Curved glass is made by heating and softening high-quality flat glass in a mold, and then annealing it. The style is beautiful and the lines are smooth, and it appears more and more frequently in some high-end decorations.
10. Glass bricks. The manufacturing process of glass bricks is basically the same as that of flat glass, but the difference is the molding method.
There is dry air in the middle. It is mostly used in decorative projects or light-transmitting shapes with thermal insulation requirements.
11. Cellophane. Also called glass film, it comes in a variety of colors and designs. Depending on the properties of the paper film, it has different properties. Most of them function as heat insulation, anti-infrared rays, anti-ultraviolet rays, and explosion-proof.
12. LED photoelectric glass. Photoelectric glass is a new type of environmentally friendly and energy-saving product. It is a combination of LED and glass. It has the transparency of glass and the brightness of LED. It is mainly used for indoor and outdoor decoration and advertising.
13. Dimmable glass: When the power is turned on, the glass becomes essentially transparent. When the power is turned off, it appears white and frosted and opaque. In the opaque state, it can be used as a rear projection screen.
14. Energy-saving glass: insulating glass, vacuum glass, low-e glass, Coating low-e glass, nano-coated glass, heat-insulating glass, etc.
