Tailored Tempered Glass for Every Architectural Need

Tempered glass, also known as toughened glass or reinforced glass, is a type of safety glass that has been processed by controlled thermal or chemical treatments to increase its strength compared with normal glass.

Principle of tempered glass

​Glass is heated to a softened state at a high temperature (around 650°C) and then rapidly cooled.

This process creates a uniform and strong compressive stress on the surface of the glass, while the interior forms a uniform and strong tensile stress. As a result, the mechanical strength and thermal stability of the glass are significantly enhanced.

This type of glass is known as tempered glass.

Features

Impact Resistance

The impact resistance of tempered glass is 3-5 times that of ordinary glass.

Bending Strength

The bending strength of tempered glass is 4-5 times that of ordinary flat glass.

Safety

When broken, tempered glass forms blunt particles that are less likely to cause injury, providing a high level of safety.

Production Process

1. Edge Treatment

The edges of the glass are treated according to different thicknesses and specifications. The main purpose is to eliminate micro-cracks on the edges to prevent breakage during heating and to improve the yield. (Due to the differences in thickness and specifications, the time required to reach the softening temperature varies. Glass with longer heating times requires higher edge treatment standards.)

2. Glass Cleaning

Specialized equipment is used to clean the surface of the glass, removing stains and impurities, and drying the glass to ensure surface quality.

3. Heating Treatment

The glass is uniformly heated to a softening temperature of 650°C. Due to differences in the glass surface and thickness, the heating time will vary. Longer heating times can cause stress spots and pinholes on the glass surface, leading to quality issues.

4. Quenching Treatment

The high-temperature glass is rapidly cooled with cold air, causing significant changes in its internal molecular structure. This process creates a uniform and strong compressive stress on the surface and a uniform and strong tensile stress internally, significantly increasing the mechanical strength of the glass, thus forming tempered glass.

5. Heat Soak Treatment

 The tempered glass is sealed in specialized equipment for high-temperature and high-pressure treatment to trigger the breakage of glass with uneven internal stress and potential spontaneous breakage risks.

6. Cleaning

The surface of the tempered glass product needs to be cleaned and dried before packaging.
