Curved tempered glass is produced by heating the glass to its softening point in a tempering furnace, then bending it using specific molds or equipment. Afterward, it is rapidly and uniformly cooled to create compressive stress on the surface and tensile stress inside, significantly enhancing its bending and impact resistance.
Applications:
Curved tempered glass can be used as a single piece or combined with laminated or insulated glass to create multi-layered composites. The curvature can also be processed with Low-E, and the convex surface can incorporate colored films, metal mesh, enamel, and digital printing for additional customization.
