Flat glass Classification Overview

Refers to the thickness of flat glass is much smaller than its length and width, parallel upper and lower surfaces of the plate-like glass. It can be divided windows, patterned glass, wire glass, double insulating glass, laminated glass, heat absorbing and reflecting glass, glazed glass, corrugated glass, wave glass and polished glass.

(A) windowpane;

6mm of thickness less than ordinary plate glass window called. It is mainly used in building windows and various modes of transport.

(B) embossed glass;

Embossed pattern pressed glass surface, some in color. The transmittance of 47% to 90%, to all or part of the heat rays, so the buildings get decorative effect. It is mainly used for building the walls and doors and windows.

(C) wire glass;

Wired glass the inside surface of the glass layer parallel to the metal mesh, its surface can be embossed or polished. Such glass is mainly used in the upper lighting, interior partitions, fire security glazing buildings.

(D) heat-absorbing and reflecting glass;

This glass has energy absorbing or reflecting sunlight, heat rays and prevent blinding light into the performance. It is mainly used for double insulating glass windows and doors. It has a blue, green, gray, bronze and other colors, the endothermic rate of 30% to 80%.

(V) double insulating glass;

It is welded or glued by the two flat glass, welding steel. Four weeks seal, the intermediate filled dry air. It has excellent sound insulation, the insulation performance, the outside air temperature -25 ℃ when the glass is not frost.

(Vi) laminated glass;

It is a polyvinyl butyral film with two layers of glass plate as a unit. An intermediate layer of a transparent and its flexible, therefore, undermine the laminated glass fragments remain adhered to the film, will not hurt, relatively safe, it is mainly used in car windshields and front board.

(Vii) glazed glass;

In colorless glass table while applying a layer of glass glaze, then glaze firing, glazed glass formed. The shape of the brick-shaped and plate-glass mosaic called minimal.

(H) trough the glass;

Its shape like a channel, some with wired glass, thickness selected 7mm. It can withstand a certain weight, and can be used in load-bearing walls, roofs, doors, windows and ceilings.

(Ix) waveform glass;

It has high strength, rigidity, etc., transmittance of 70% to 75%, can be transparent glazing and roofing.

(X) polished glass;

By mechanical grinding and polishing of flat glass, known as polished glass. It has a flat surface, no optical distortion.
