Types and characteristics of glass panels

Ordinary flat glass: It has good light transmittance and can clearly transmit light, allowing people to see objects on the other side of the glass. It is widely used in windows and partitions of buildings, etc., and can provide lighting and vision. The surface is relatively flat and smooth, but the texture is brittle and the impact resistance is weak. It is easy to break when subjected to a large external force, and sharp fragments will be formed after breaking.
Tempered glass: The strength is several times that of ordinary glass, and the bending and impact resistance are greatly improved. When it is broken by impact, it will split into small blunt-angle particles, which is not easy to cause serious harm to the human body. It is often used in places with high safety requirements, such as doors and windows of shopping malls, schools, and hospitals, as well as car windows.
Laminated glass: It is made of one or more layers of PVB film and other materials sandwiched between two or more layers of glass. When the glass is impacted, even if the glass is broken, the fragments will be stuck to the film in the middle, and will not splash and hurt people. It has high safety. It is usually used for the front windshield of the car, the skylight of the building, and some glass curtain walls with high safety requirements.
Organic glass sheet: The light transmittance can reach more than 92%, which can provide clear and bright visual effects, good optical uniformity, and effectively reduce light refraction and scattering. It is light, about half the weight of glass, and is widely used in aerospace, automobile manufacturing and other fields with strict weight restrictions. In addition, it also has good processing performance and can be made into products of various shapes and sizes through cutting, drilling, engraving, hot bending and other processing methods.
