Tempered glass

Tempered glass is one kind of safely glass being produced by heating flat glass to its softening point. Then on its surface forms the compressive stress and suddenly cool down the surface evenly, thus the compressive stress again distributes on glass surface while the tension stress exists at the center layer of the glass. The tension stress caused by outside pressure is counterbalanced with the strong compressive stress. As the result the safety performance of glass is increased.

performance of tempered glass

Tempered glasss anti-bent strength, is s anti-strike strength and heat stability are 3 times, 4-6 times and 3 times to ordinary glass, no harm to person. When used as curtain walls its anti-wind coefficient is much higher than the ordinary glass.

Application scope of tempered glass

The tempered glass is mainly used in the glass curtain wall, large display window, bathroom, automatic arm rest, balcony windows and doors, glass partition, stadium, the buildings where there is a large crowd and the damage easily happens due to human bodys easy touching.
