CHEMICAL TEMPERED GLASS CATALOGUE

Product catalog summary
Product Description: Chemically tempered glass is a safety glass enhanced through an ion exchange process, replacing Na+ ions with K+ ions, resulting in increased strength and thermal shock resistance. It is 4-8 times stronger, more scratch-resistant, and tends to crack rather than shatter.
Technical Specifications: The glass features high surface compression, enhanced impact resistance, and thermal shock resistance up to ~200°C. It maintains optical clarity and is available in thicknesses from 1 mm to 19 mm. Key characteristics include flexural strength of 100-600 kN, surface compression of 200-900 MPa, and light transmittance of ≥90%.
Advantages: Chemically tempered glass provides strength even in ultra-thin glass, maintains visual clarity, enhances scratch resistance, and offers a weight advantage. It can be tempered after cutting.
Areas of Use: This glass is used in electronic devices, optical products, the defense industry, yacht and boat industry, architecture, automotive, medical and laboratory products, industrial applications, and decorative arts.
Additional Features: The glass offers high strength even in thin forms, high optical quality without distortions, a flawless surface finish, and resistance to temperature and chemicals. It also provides weight savings and water repellency with optional coatings.
Comparison with Heat Tempering: Chemical tempering allows for mechanical processing after strengthening, prevents sudden breakage, and offers better optical quality. It is more expensive and slower than heat tempering but allows for thinner glass and complex shapes.

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS ADVANTAGES AREAS OF USE ADDITIONAL FEATURES A YD I A/ AcAr " ■■ YACHT GLASS - Chemically tempered glass is a type of safety glass whose strength and thermal shock resistance are enhanced through a specialised ion exchange process applied to the gjass surface. The process is based on the principle of replacing Na+ ions in the surface with K+ ions through immersion in a heated potassium salt bath. Through this method, the glass: - Becomes 4-8 times stronger, - Gains increased resistance to scratches, - Offers enhanced protection against thermal shock,...

Provides strength even in ultra-thin glass Maintains visual and optical clarity Tempering can be applied after cutting Enhances scratch resistance Offers a weight advantage Chemically tempered glass is a type of glass whose strength has been enhanced through a specialised chemical process, typically involving a potassium nitrate bath. This treatment significantly improves the glass’s resistance to scratching, impact, and thermal shock. Its range of applications is broad, shaped by both technical requirements and aesthetic preferences.

Addıtı ona l Fe a t u r e s WEIGHT ADVANTAGE Ideal for Lighter Structures Chemical tempering imparts high strength even to thin glass, enabling the use of thinner glass compared to traditional thick tempered glass. This provides a critical advantage in reducing glass weight, especially in boats, yachts, and mobile systems. This results in reduced fuel consumption, improved balance, and enhanced performance. PROVIDES WEIGHT SAVINGS Thanks to chemical tempering, high strength is achieved even in thin glass. This reduces the glass thickness in yacht and boat applications, lowering the carrying load...
