Heat strengthened tempered glass
Tempered glass is produced by heating annealed glass in a furnace to approximate
700℃ and rapidly blowing cool air onto its surface. this rapid cooling process is the key
element in the physical changes in annealed glass; it creates additional stresses within
the glass. therefore, it is more resistant to thermal breakage and is capable of withstanding
higher wind loads.
The process of heat strengthening is similar to that of tempering, however, in this
instance the glass is quenched at a slower rate. the result is the glass tension is less
than that of the tempered glass. heat strengthened glass offers a good resistance to
bending and thermal shock. in the event of breakage, the breakage pattern is linear and
the fragments are more likely to remain in place with the frame.
