  2. Poly(methyl methacrylate) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poly(methyl_methacrylate)

    PMMA is also known as acrylic, acrylic glass, as well as by the trade names and brands Crylux, Hesalite, Plexiglas, Acrylite, Lucite, and Perspex, among several others . This plastic is often used in sheet form as a lightweight or shatter-resistant alternative to glass. It can also be used as a casting resin, in inks and coatings, and for many ...

  3. List of physical properties of glass - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_physical...

    This is a list of some physical properties of common glasses. Unless otherwise stated, the technical glass compositions and many experimentally determined properties are taken from one large study. [1]

  4. Safety glass - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Safety_glass

    Toughened glass is processed by controlled thermal or chemical treatments to increase its strength compared with normal glass. [6] Tempering, by design, creates balanced internal stresses which causes the glass sheet, when broken, to crumble into small granular chunks of similar size and shape instead of splintering into random, jagged shards.

  5. Tempered glass - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tempered_glass

    Tempered or toughened glass is a type of safety glass processed by controlled thermal or chemical treatments to increase its strength compared with normal glass. Tempering puts the outer surfaces into compression and the interior into tension .

  6. Fracture toughness - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fracture_toughness

    Fracture toughness varies by approximately 4 orders of magnitude across materials. Metals hold the highest values of fracture toughness. Cracks cannot easily propagate in tough materials, making metals highly resistant to cracking under stress and gives their stress–strain curve a large zone of plastic flow.

  7. Residual stress - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Residual_stress

    Residual stress may be desirable or undesirable. For example, laser peening imparts deep beneficial compressive residual stresses into metal components such as turbine engine fan blades, and it is used in toughened glass to allow for large, thin, crack- and scratch-resistant glass displays on smartphones.
