Core Functional Properties
Enhanced Mechanical Strength: Its impact and flexural strength are 3–5 times that of ordinary glass; it effectively resists wind pressure and external impacts, offering significantly higher load-bearing capacity.
Improved Safety: When shattered by external force, it breaks into small, uniform, blunt-edged granules rather than sharp shards, drastically reducing the risk of injury and classifying it as a type of safety glass.
Enhanced Thermal Stability:It can withstand temperature fluctuations exceeding 200°C-offering 3–5 times the thermal shock resistance of ordinary glass-making it less prone to shattering due to uneven heating or cooling.
Application-Specific Roles
Construction: Used in high-rise windows and doors, glass curtain walls, and skylights; mandatory for exterior windows above the seventh floor to ensure safety at heights.
Transportation: Used for automotive side windows and rear windshields, as well as windows for trains and ships, to withstand external impacts during transit.
Home Appliances & Electronics: Used for oven doors, refrigerator panels, and mobile phone or tablet screens, balancing thermal shock resistance with operational safety.
Furniture & Household Goods: Used in glass coffee tables, shower enclosures, and glass cutting boards; even if accidentally broken during daily use, it is unlikely to cause serious injury.
