 A house is not only a reside replace ,It is also a haven that one turns to at night in peace. We all want to do our best to ensure that our loved house and people are safe.Using security glass in your home. is very good and smart measurement to improve your home security,Why?

What is Security Glass and how is it Made?

tempered-glass-door

Security Glass, also known as toughened or heat-strengthened glass ,laminated glass is also typical safety glass.It is a special modern, and innovative glass specifically designed for safety and security purposes. Security glass is  3-5 times more durable and stronger than normal float or annealed glass ,it can handle tremendous external pressure  and once broken ,it will shatter to pieces and avoid injury,that’s the main reason security glass qualifies “security” glass.  Normal float glass will shatter into dagger-like pieces that pose a serious threat to people.

So, how is security glass manufactured?

Process of toughened glass which involves alternative rapid cooling and heating of float glass,heating the float glass to 670-710 degree and cooling it rapidly with wind.

The advantages of Security Glass

Provides Safety and Security

The tempered glass is 3-5 times tougher than the float glass and can be used for safety and security purposes. Even if the glass broken, it will break into cube-like pieces incapable of causing any serious injuries.

Flexibility and Versatility

Glass is highly customisable and can be used in a variety of different areas depending on your unique requirements. You can use frosted security glass for better privacy or even colour-tinted frosted security glass to fulfil both your privacy needs.

Thermal Resistance

compared to normal annealed glass,tempered glass is also three times more resistant to thermal stress . It can easily resist temperature changes of up to 200°C as and annealed glass can only resist up to 100°C.

The Many Applications of Security Glass for Your Home

Windows and Doors

The windows and doors protect you and your family and hence need to be strong and durable and precent burglar and thief. The strength and durability of heat-strengthened glass and tempered glass cannot be easily broken making your home burglar-resistant.

Glass Staircases

When it comes to staircase railings, ramps, which need to support body weight consistently! The security glass’ strength and impact-resistance comes to advantage. Using security glass for your house stairs and railings will not only be a secure option but will also render a lighter and more aesthetically pleasing look to your living space.

Home Furniture

Security glass can be used in table tops, kitchen cabinets, and other home furniture for rendering safety, especially when children are involved. the glass is also scratch and damage resistant, it can remain fresh-looking for longer periods without tedious maintenance.

Bathrooms or shower doors

Since bathrooms are generally wet areas highly prone to slip and fall mishaps, it is always safer to use security glass instead of normal annealed glass as it breaks into blunt pebble-like pieces that will not lead to injury.

Advantage of warm edge spacer in Insulated glass

 The material used to manufacture the glass spacer is one of the most important factors that deciding whether the windows are energy efficient or not. Glass spacers play an important role in a window’s overall performance,especially the thermal conductivity and thermal insulation performance, as they determine the amount of heat and cold that is able to pass through a window.

The 2 or 3 lites of glass panels in insulated glass are held apart by spacers.The quality of the materials used to produce spacers, their longevity, flexibility and thermal properties are critical.

WARM EDGE SPACER ADVANTAGE-INSULATED GLASS

 

Good spacer should have 4 important roles:
 Absorb stress caused by thermal expansion and contraction
 Block moisture and water vapor that can fog glass
 Create a tight seal that prevents leakage of special gas fills
 Increase the temperature of the edges of the insulated glass – this can help reduce condensation and increase overall energy efficiency of the window

Traditional double-glazed windows used metal spacer, typically aluminum. Aluminum is an excellent conductor of heat. During winter it conducts cold and makes the edges of the glass even colder. This decreases overall U-Factor of the window making it less energy efficient. In addition to the increased heat loss, the colder edge is easy to cause condensation. Aluminum spacer is usually square-shaped. This inflexible shape is typically a major reason for seal failures .
Warm edge spacer is new products that has low thermal conductivity,the advantage of warm edge spacer used in insulated glass and windows are:
Reduces Sealant Stress
Super Spacer’s thermoset polymer material expands and contracts and always returns to its original shape. Super Spacer sealed IG units last up to five times longer in durability tests than conventional single seal units.

Good spacer should have 4 important roles: Absorb stress caused by thermal expansion and contraction Block moisture prevents leakage of special gas fills

Improves Heat Flow Resistance
The all-foam formula blocks heat transfer and provides one of the best thermal performances available. Super Spacer resists heat flow 950 times more than that of aluminum. This means lower energy costs, less condensation/frosting and reduced chances for mold growth.

Improves Glass Surface Temperature
Super Spacer’s extremely low thermal conductivity means less variation in the surface temperature of the
insulated glass unit. Super Spacer units withstand 140°F/60°C temperatures, 95-100% humidity and constant UV bombardment in the world’s toughest durability test – The P-1 chamber.

Improves Sound Absorption
The closed-cell polymer foam in Super Spacer transmits very little sound compared to conventional aluminum spacers.
Acoustical laminated glass, Super Spacer and varying thicknesses of glass are recommended wherever noise from airplanes, trains or automobiles are a concern.

Improves Condensation Resistance
Mold needs moisture to grow. Moisture can increase the likelihood of fungi, viruses and mites that can cause infections, allergies and asthma. The significantly reduced interior condensation or frosting means that the health problems associated with mold may be virtually eliminated.

Balcony Glass-Laminated Safety Glass

 Most balcony glass are made with 8mm/10mm/12mm toughened glass,toughened glass is 3-5 times that of float glass,it create light, clear viewing.When glass broken,it will shattered into many small particles,usually 40-80 pieces in an square area of 50*50mm.Actually even though the glass strengthen is good enough,but toughened glass can be easily broken once any hit on the corners,edges.In addition to the Nis inside float glass,there would be 3‰ spontaneous breakage ratio.Thus caused huge injury possibility ,especially for Child that live in high floors.

There was a tragic accident happened in England in 2012, a child fell through a gap left by a smashed panel of monolithic glass in the roof terrace balustrade. Following the incident, the more forward-thinking companies in the industry started to move completely away from using monolithic glass and instead use toughened laminate glass.

Different from single piece toughened glass, the laminate glass contains 2 piece glass and special PVB or SGP interlayers that hold the glass.So even if one piece glass break, the interlayer will keep glass integrity and work as temporary barriers and prevent drop or falling.

Laminated glass is recommended to be used in high end glass balcony to protect people from falling down,protect the people under the balcony from the glass rain

 

The typical application of laminated glass is in bank, the bulletproof glass used in banks are very tough,people can hardly break it even with hammers,or other tools.So it works as good barrier and prevent people from breaking the glass and drop.

Below video shows clearly the difference between single piece glass and laminated glass safety,the tested glass include 19mm clear tempered glass,21.52mm PVB laminated glass,21.52mm SGP laminated glass:

Despite the safety concern,laminated glass can also offering privacy.Digitally printing,silk screen sandblasting,acid etching process enable the glass to have variety transparency ,and optional patterns on glass to provide efficient beauty and privacy performance.

The interlayer used in laminated glass can have different colors that body tinted glass cannot achieve,such as pink,blue,black,milky white,ceramic white colors,the variety color options also increase the overall balcony appearance and beauty.

Laminated glass is highly recommended to be used in high level glass balcony to protect people from falling down,but also protect the people under the balcony from the “glass rain”.
