There are many kinds of architectural glass commonly used in buildings. There are several.

1, flat glass

Flat-shaped glass products that have not been processed are flat glass, also known as white glass or net glass. According to the production method, divided into general flat glass and float glass. Flat glass is a large production of building glass zui, the use of zui more than one, the first use of doors and windows, lighting, surround, insulation, sound insulation and other effects, but also a step into other skill glass original.

According to the use is divided into window glass and decorative glass. According to the rules of China's standard "General Flat Glass" and "Floating Glass", glass according to its thickness can be divided into the following specifications: according to China's standards, flat glass according to its appearance quality for grade, the general flat glass is divided into superior products, - equivalent products and second-class products three levels. Float glass is divided into excellent 、-- grade and qualified products three levels. The use of flat glass has two aspects: 3 to 5mm flat glass is generally used directly for the lighting of doors and windows, 8 to 12mm flat glass can be used for interval. Another important use is as a steel, laminate, coating, hollow and other glass original.

2, tempered glass

Also known as reinforced glass. Tempered glass has good mechanical properties and thermal stability, so it is widely used in construction, transportation and other fields. Flat tempered glass is commonly used as building doors and windows, partition walls, curtain walls and window windows, and curved glass is commonly used in cars, trains and airplanes. The steel glass strength is high, its pressure strength can reach 125MPa or more, 4 to 5 times larger than the average glass, the impact strength is also very high, with the steel ball method to determine, O.8kg steel ball from 1.2m height fall, the glass can adhere to the good.

The thermal stability is good, in the heat of the hot and cold, it is not easy to crack. This is due to the pressure stress of tempered glass can be offset - partly due to the pull stress caused by hot and cold. Tempered glass heat resistance, zui large safety operating temperature of 288C, can withstand 204C temperature difference changes.

3, clip glass

Also known as anti-fragile glass or wire glass. Can be used for building doors and windows, skylights, light roofs, balconies and other parts. Produced by the pressure extension method, is in the state of glass melting will be preheated treatment of the wire or wire mesh into the center of the glass, by annealing, cut. The surface of the clamped glass can be embossed or polished, and the color can be made colorless transparent or colorful. Characterized by good safety and fire resistance. Because of the skeleton effect of the wire mesh, not only improves the strength of the glass, but also when damaged by impact or temperature mutation, the debris will not fly away, avoiding the damage of the fragments to humans. China's production of clip-in glass is divided into sandwich-stitch edphea glass and clip-wire polished glass two categories.

4, titanium glass

Called never-break iron foil glass, is the titanium foil film glued to any kind of glass substrate, combined into a new type of glass. High anti-fragile, high heat and UV protection functions. Different substrate glass and different titanium foil film, can be combined into different colors, different functions, different specifications of titanium glass. Titanium glass common colors are: colorless, tan, tan reflective, copper reflective and so on.

5, heat-absorbing glass

Can absorb a large amount of infrared radiation energy, and adhere to a higher visible light transmission rate. Heat-absorbing glass can also be further processed into polished, tempered, laminated or hollow glass. Widely used in building doors and windows, exterior walls and used as cars, ship windshields, etc. , play a role in insulation, anti-glare, lighting and decoration. The gray, tan and blue of heat-absorbing glass are the first three colors produced in China. The thickness is 2, 3, 5, 6mm four kinds.
