This issue, Yooan will guide you on how to reduce the risk of glass breakage inaluminum alloy glass doors and windows, enhancing home safety and overall comfort!
◆ What is the true cause of spontaneous glass breakage?
☆☆☆Nickel sulfide expansion!
Nickel sulfide (NiS) impurities within tempered glass expand under high temperatures, causing excessive internal pressure that triggers spontaneous breakage. This is an inherent characteristic of tempered glass that cannot be entirely eliminated, but we can significantly reduce the risk through scientific material selection and manufacturing processes.
◆ What methods can reduce the likelihood of spontaneous glass breakage?
- Opt for Ultra-Clear Glass
Ultra-clear glass contains significantly fewer impurities than standard glass, with a spontaneous breakage rate only one-third that of ordinary glass! YOOAN offers premium ultra-clear glass sheets for custom selection (choose from brands like CSG, Xinyi, and Taiwan Glass), ensuring safety from the source.
- Opt for “Homogenization Treatment”
Homogenization is a specialized “per-fracturing” process—subjecting glass to high temperatures to induce premature breakage in units with latent self-explosion risks. This treatment typically reduces the self-explosion rate to approximately 0.1%-1%, with exact figures varying by process standards, brand, and testing conditions!
- Automotive-Grade Process Standards YOOAN'spremium series employs the same technology and processes as automotive windshields, safeguarding your home's safety.
