What kinds of glass are there?
At present, there are many kinds of glass on the market, different glass prices are not the same, and the use area is not the same. So, let’s introduce what kinds of glass there are.
What are the types of glass
The type of glass according to the process can be divided into insulating glass, toughened glass, hot melt glass, etc. According to the composition can be divided into borate glass, phosphate glass, etc.; According to the production can be divided into plate glass and deep processing glass. So when you buy glass, you can choose and buy according to the type of glass.
1.tempered glass. It is a prestressed glass made of ordinary plate glass after reprocessing. Compared with ordinary plate glass, tempered glass has two characteristics:
1, the strength of the former is several times of the latter, tensile strength is more than 3 times of the latter, impact resistance is more than 5 times of the latter.
2, toughened glass is not easy to break, even broken will be broken in the form of particles without acute Angle, greatly reduce the harm to the human body.
2.Frosted glass. It is also frosted on top of ordinary flat glass. The general thickness is more than 9 cm below, with more than 5 or 6 cm thickness.
3. Sandblasted glass. Performance is basically similar to frosted glass, different frosted sand for blasting. Many homeowners and even renovation professionals confuse the two because of their visual similarities.
4. Embossed glass. It is a flat glass made by calendering method. Its biggest feature is light opaque, used in the bathroom and other decoration areas.
5, wire glass. Is a calendering method, the metal wire or metal mesh embedded in the glass plate made of a kind of anti-impact plate glass, when the impact will only form a radial crack and not fall down wounding. Therefore, it is often used in high-rise buildings and factories with strong vibration.
6. Insulating glass. The adhesive bonding method is used to keep two pieces of glass at a certain interval. The interval is dry air, and the surrounding area is sealed with sealing materials. It is mainly used in the decoration works with sound insulation requirements.
7. Laminated glass. Laminated glass generally consists of two pieces of ordinary plate glass (also toughened glass or other special glass) and an organic adhesive layer between the glass. When damaged, the debris is still adhered to the adhesive layer, avoiding the damage to the human body caused by the splash of debris. It is mainly used for decoration projects with safety requirements.
8. Bulletproof glass. In fact, it is a kind of laminated glass, but the glass is composed of tempered glass with higher strength, and the number of laminated glass is relatively more. Used in banks or luxury homes and other very high safety requirements of the decoration project.
9. Hot bending glass. Curved glass made from plate glass softened by heating in a mold and then annealed. In some senior decoration appears more and more frequency, need to book, no spot.
10. Glass tiles. The production process of glass brick is basically the same as that of plate glass, but the difference is the forming method. In between is dry air. It is mainly used in decorative projects or transparent modeling with insulation requirements.
11. Cellophane. Also known as glass film, with a variety of colors and patterns. According to the different properties of paper film, it has different properties. Most of them play the role of heat insulation, anti-infrared, anti-ultraviolet, explosion-proof and so on.
Two, how to maintain the glass better
1, clean the glass, you can use a wet rag or newspaper wipe, for more serious stains, you can use a rag dipped in beer or vinegar wipe. In addition, you can also use glass cleaning agent for cleaning, but it is forbidden to use acid and alkaline detergent, if it is winter glass surface frosting, you can use salt water or liquor to scrub, the effect is very good.
2, if it is glass furniture, it is recommended to put in a position, do not move casually, and should be placed flat, for relatively heavy items can not be directly placed above, to avoid damaging the glass surface. In addition, glass furniture should be far away from the stove, not close to acid, alkali and other chemicals, to avoid corrosion and deterioration. 3, for more oil stains of glass, you can use plastic wrap processing, and then spray some detergent on the glass, and then affixed with plastic wrap, so that the condensation of the oil decomposition, and then tear off the plastic wrap after a while, it is best to wipe with a wet cloth.
4, can not hit the glass, in order to avoid scratches on the surface of the glass, can be on the glass doormat cloth. In addition, for the glass furniture above the things, to handle gently, avoid collision with the glass.
5, for the grain of the glass if dirty, you can use a brush along the grain to wipe. In addition, you can also use kerosene or chalk ash, lime powder dipped in water on the surface of the glass to dry, and then wipe with a rag or cotton, which can make the glass bright as new.
