GLASS COUNTERTOP
Tempered glass is a type of safety glass processed by controlled thermal or chemical
treatments to increase its strength compared with normal glass. Tempering creates
balanced internal stresses which cause the glass, when broken, to crumble into small
granular chunks instead of splintering into jagged shards. The granular chunks are less
likely to cause injury. As a result of its safety and strength, tempered glass is used
in a variety of demanding applications, including laboratory furniture countertops.
Features
Safety
When the glass external damage, the debris will become similar the honeycomb Suixiao
obtuse angle particles, not easy to damage the human body.
High strength
The impact strength of the tempered glass of the same thickness of 3 to 5 times that
of ordinary glass and the bending strength of 3 to 5 times that of ordinary glass.
Thermal stability
Tempered glass has good thermal stability and can withstand the temperature difference
is 3 times that of ordinary glass, can withstand 200 ° C of temperature change.
Corrosion resistance
Tempered glass Can resist very acidic substance outside except hydrofluoric acid
corrosion
Application
Tempered glass countertop is the perfect choice for a range of laboratories
including teaching and research, medical and pharmaceutical operations. From
universities to high schools,form fundamental and applied science researching centers
to wide range of industrial organizations,from disease control and preventive medical
departments to quarantine centers; From biological products and pharmaceutical
factories to industrial and hospital labs, clinics and operation rooms.
Cleaning and Maintenance
1, Usually do not force collisions glass surface, in order to prevent the glass surface
scratches,preferably covered with tablecloths. Resting place something on the glass
furniture to be handled gently to avoid collision.
2, For routine cleaning, wipe with a wet towel or newspaper can be, in case of stains
can be a towel dipped in beer or warm vinegar erase Also you can use glass cleaners
currently on the market are highly acidic and alkaline hangedsolution clean. The winter
glass surface is easy frosting, available cloth dipped in brine or liquor to wipe good
results.
3, Frosted glass pattern once dirty, can be used moistened with cleaners too thbrush
down the pattern circular motion wipe can be removed. The glass can also drop point
kerosene or dipped in water with chalk powder and gypsum powder coated glass dry rub
and then a clean cloth or cotton, so that the glass is clean and bright.
4, Glass furniture best placed in a fixed place, do not move back and forth freely;
want a smooth placement of objects, heavy objects should be placed on the bottom of the
glass furniture to prevent furniture center of gravity caused by tipping over. To avoid
moisture, away from the stove to acid, alkali and other chemical reagents isolated to
prevent corrosion deterioration.
5、Damp cloth with plastic wrap and spray detergent also allows often greasy glass
"rebirth". First, the glass is fully sprayed with detergent, then paste the plastic
wrap so solidified grease softening, torn plastic wrap over ten minutes, and then you
can wipe with a damp cloth. In order to keep the glass clean and bright, and must often
hands clean if the handwriting on the glass, the available rubber flooding friction,
then a damp cloth; paint, can be used if the glass cotton dipped in hot vinegar scrub;
clean dry cloth moistened with alcohol to wipe the glass can make it as bright as
crystal.
