[Glass that can be "bent"] What are the uses of hot bending glass?

Hot bending glass is a kind of curved glass which is softened by heating ordinary glass. This kind of glass has beautiful lines and can be made into different shapes according to actual needs, which breaks through the singleness of traditional flat glass and is more flexible and diverse in use. Can be applied to fish tanks, counters, glass curtain walls, etc., giving people a more unique feeling in appearance. Here is a detailed introduction to the use of this kind of glass that can be "bent".

What are the uses of hot bending glass?

In general furniture decoration, the use of glass is generally less, the commonly used doors and windows have a fixed style, and the coffee table is also tempered glass. In recent years, in some advanced decoration, the frequency of hot bending glass is getting higher and higher. With the continuous improvement of people's aesthetic level, the production of hot bending glass is becoming more and more artistic, and some exterior wall glass curtain walls also use hot bending glass with radians.

Hot bending glass for building is mainly used for decoration inside and outside the building, as well as lighting roofs, sightseeing elevators, arched corridors and so on. Hot-bent glass for household use is mainly used as glass furniture, glass aquarium, glass washbasin, glass counter, glass coffee table, glass decorations, etc. Hot bending glass is usually a good choice to protect the glass corner. The traditional flat glass will inevitably produce sharp corners when it is attached. Choose hot bending glass and bend it at the corner, which will not affect the original use, but also reduce some unnecessary suspension damage.

Is it dangerous to bend glass?

The manufacturing process of hot-bending glass is to heat and soften high-quality glass, and then put it into a special mold for setting. Sometimes, in the case of plasticity, it is necessary to increase some appropriate pressure and make some necessary adjustments to the surrounding environment. But in essence, the raw materials of hot-bent glass are similar to ordinary glass, and due to the process of heating and cooling, the light degree of hot-bent glass may even be slightly lower than ordinary glass, and its compression resistance is poor.

In the previous news, some friends may have noticed that tempered glass may explode, so will hot bent glass explode? In fact, hot bending glass will also explode. In order to improve its strength and ductility, some physical or chemical methods will be used to form compressive stress on the glass surface, which may cause "self-explosion" once improperly operated.

Through today's introduction, I hope everyone can know more about hot bending glass, choose appropriate glass products according to the decoration needs, choose high-quality glass products, and pay attention to the pressure-bearing capacity of glass to avoid unnecessary safety problems.
