Tempered Glass

Technology Innovation

★Exhibit Content: Science popularization experience of tempered glass characteristics and prestressed materials ★Interaction: Electromechanical interactive demonstration ★Operation: 1. Push the handle to fix the heavy hammer at the set height; 2. Pull down the handle to release the heavy hammer, making it strike the tempered glass; 3. Observe the state of the glass after being struck, and combine with the cumulative number of heavy strikes on the display to understand the difference between tempered glass and ordinary glass; 4. After the experience, leave the exhibit. ★Exhibit Description: The exhibit consists of a sheet metal main body, sensors, motors, bearings, linear slide rails, sliders, tempered glass, handles, graphic panels, etc. When the handle is pushed, the heavy hammer will be fixed at a certain height. Pull down the handle to release the heavy hammer, and the heavy hammer will strike the glass. Observe the state of the glass after being struck. Use the heavy hammer to strike the strengthened glass and challenge its strength. The display shows the cumulative number of heavy strikes on the glass. ★Scientific Principle: Tempered glass is actually a type of prestressed glass. To improve the strength of glass, chemical or physical methods are usually used to form compressive stress on the glass surface. When the glass bears external force, it first offsets the surface stress, thereby improving the load-bearing capacity and enhancing the glass's own wind pressure resistance, temperature resistance, impact resistance, etc. Note the difference from fiberglass.
