  2. Tempered glass - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tempered_glass

    Using tempered glass can pose a security risk in some situations because of the tendency of the glass to shatter completely upon hard impact rather than leaving shards in the window frame. [10] The surface of tempered glass does exhibit surface waves caused by contact with flattening rollers, if it has been formed using this process.

  4. Architectural glass - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Architectural_glass

    Laminated glass is manufactured by bonding two or more layers of glass together with an interlayer, such as PVB, under heat and pressure, to create a single sheet of glass. When broken, the interlayer keeps the layers of glass bonded and prevents it from breaking apart. The interlayer can also give the glass a higher sound insulation rating.

  5. Safety glass - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Safety_glass

    Wired glass is used in the US for its fire-resistant abilities, and is well-rated to withstand both heat and hose streams. This is why wired glass exclusively is used on service elevators to prevent fire ingress to the shaft, and also why it is commonly found in institutional settings which are often well-protected and partitioned against fire.

  6. Thermal shock - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_shock

    Thermal shock resistance measures can be used for material selection in applications subject to rapid temperature changes. The maximum temperature jump, , sustainable by a material can be defined for strength-controlled models by: [4] [3] = where is the failure stress (which can be yield or fracture stress), is the coefficient of thermal expansion, is the Young's modulus, and is a constant ...

  7. Thermal fracturing in glass - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_fracturing_in_glass

    Thermal fracturing in glass occurs when a sufficient temperature differential is created within glass. [1] As a warmed area expands or a cooled area contracts, stress forces develop, potentially leading to fracture. A temperature differential may be created in many ways, including solar heating, space heating devices, fire, or hot and cold liquids.

  8. Heated glass - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heated_glass

    Heatable glass unit at work. The first heated glass was created in 1931 by Protes Glass Company, offered for cars. Their product was not a success. [3] Heated glass was first used on a wide scale in World War II in Naval Ships and on to aircraft windshields from frosting over in cold weather It is still used in both for this purpose.

  9. Strength of glass - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strength_of_glass

    Imperfections of the glass, such as bubbles, and in particular surface flaws, such as scratches, have a great effect on the strength of glass and decrease it even more than for other brittle materials. [2] [1] The chemical composition of the glass also impacts its tensile strength. [3]
