With the improvement of living standards, the use of tempered glass is indispensable in our life, and it is also used in various industries and fields. So what should we pay attention to when using tempered glass in our life?
- It is forbidden to use sharp and hard objects to hit the corners of the glass
Since the stress points of tempered glass are concentrated at the corners, once the corners are broken, the chance of tempered glass breaking will increase. Therefore, for the sake of home safety, do not use sharp and hard objects to hit the corners of tempered glass.
- Pay attention to protect the corners of tempered glass
If the corners of the tempered glass are damaged, the risk of glass self-explosion is multiplied. Because the stress points of tempered glass are all concentrated at the corners, the protection of the corners is particularly important, and you must be cautious when using tempered glass with damaged corners that cannot be handled;
- Avoid keeping tempered glass under pressure for a long time
I believe that many families will use tempered glass coffee tables. Since tempered glass has a certain pressure strength, if it is not necessary, it is recommended not to place heavy objects on glass products such as tempered glass coffee tables for a long time to avoid unnecessary losses.
A few points you need to pay attention to when using tempered glass!
- Avoid uneven heating and cooling
If under extreme conditions, high temperature and low temperature are respectively applied to both ends of a piece of glass, then 90% of the glass will self-explode. For example, pour some cold water on a lighted incandescent lamp, and the glass of the incandescent lamp will break. Although for tempered glass, this kind of situation will be very small, but if you are not afraid of 10,000, you are afraid of it;
- Keep away from acid and alkali substances
Avoid letting tempered glass come into contact with alkaline substances such as sodium hydroxide (NaOH caustic soda) and hydrofluoric acid (HF). Glass is essentially silicon dioxide (SiO2), which will chemically react with the above substances
