How to extend the service life of toughened U-shaped glass
The toughened glass is a safety glass. The U-shaped toughened glass is a type of prestressed glass that is heated to a temperature (600-650 â ° C) near the glass's softening point. Deep-processed glass products are chemically cooled or tempered quickly. Glass has good mechanical properties and heat resistance, also known as U-shaped toughened glass.
Toughened U-shaped glass is used by many large companies. How can its service life be extended? Here are some suggestions.
First, avoid putting pressure on the U-shaped toughened glass for long periods of time while using it.
Many families opt for a toughened glass table and coffee table for a more aesthetically pleasing interior. But the glass can withstand the pressure generally in the 70 mpa to 100 mpa, this pressure times the force area of the glass is it can withstand the z big pressure. Converted to mass = (pressure * area)/10. If not necessary, do not place heavy objects on the table for a long time, so as not to break the glass when the pressure reaches a critical point.
Toughened U-shaped glass cannot be cut after tempering. It must be processed to the required shape before it is toughened.
Although toughened U-shaped glass is stronger than ordinary glass, large temperature differences can cause spontaneous breakage due to internal defects. Ordinary glass does not exhibit this type of spontaneous breakage.
Secondly, when using U-shaped toughened glass, avoid contact with basic substances such as sodium hydroxide acid (caustic soda) and hydrofluoric acid.
You see, the U-shaped toughened glass is essentially glass, which is silicon dioxide. If long-term exposure to sodium hydroxide (caustic soda) , hydrofluoric acid and other basic substances, chemical reactions will occur, it is particularly bad.
