Introducion of the Classification of Glass (one)

Glass can be classified according to its function and methods into the following types：
1. Tempered Glass
A. After being heated and rapidly cooled, its strength is 3 to 5 times that of ordinary glass. When broken, it forms blunt-angle small particles and is not likely to cause injury.
B. Applications： Building facades, shower rooms, car windshields, and home appliance panels.
2. Laminated Glass (Laminated Safety Glass)
A. Two or more layers of glass are sandwiched between a PVB film, which prevents fragments from scattering upon breakage.
B. Features: Safe, soundproof, anti-theft, bulletproof basic material.
C. Applications: Glass for high-rise buildings, car windshields, bank security glass.
3. Insulated Glass
A. An air or inert gas layer is sealed between two pieces of glass.
B. Features: Heat insulation, sound insulation, and prevention of condensation.
C. Applications: Energy-saving doors and windows, curtain walls, cold storage windows.
4. Coated Glass
A. Applying metal or compound film layers on the surface of the glass.
B. Heat reflection coating: Energy-saving and insulation, used for building exteriors.
C. Low-E coating: Energy-saving and heat retention, reducing heat loss.
D. Conductive coating: Used in touch screens and heated glass.
5. Fire-resistant Glass
A. It can maintain its integrity during a fire, blocking flames and high temperatures.
B. Applications: Fire escape routes, fire barriers, computer room glass.
6. Bulletproof Glass
A. Composed of multiple layers of glass and films, it can withstand gunshots.
B. Applications: Bank counters, armored vehicles, important security areas.
7. Sanded/Blurred/Blistered Glass
A. Rough surface, not transparent through.
B. Applications: Bathroom, office partitions, decorative glass.
8. Colored Glazed Glass (Screen Printing Glass)
A. The surface is coated with high-temperature glaze, ensuring long-lasting and non-fading colors.
B. Applications: Curtain wall decoration, household appliance glass, sign glass.
9. Heat-bent Glass
A. It is formed by heating and bending, presenting an arc shape or a spherical shape.
B. Applications: Automotive glass, curved curtain walls, sightseeing elevators.
10. Microcrystalline Glass
A. The glass undergoes crystallization treatment, resulting in the presence of tiny crystals within.
B. Features: High strength, high temperature resistance, wear resistance.
C. Applications: Induction cooker panels, exterior wall decoration, military components.
