Classification and Advantages of Glass Types Quiz

Tempered Glass = Safety glass shattering into granules Security Glass = Exceptional tensile and impact strength Wired Glass = Glass with wire mesh inserted during manufacture Heavy Glass = Used for glazing windows and doors where greater strength is required

Transparency = Allows light to pass through easily Dustproof and Waterproof = Resistant to dust and water penetration Color Availability = Variety of colors to choose from UV Stable = Resistance to damage from ultraviolet rays

Cost = Expense related to acquisition or maintenance Brittleness = Tendency to break easily under pressure Etching of Glass Surface = Surface damage causing cloudiness or roughness Unsafe for Earthquake-prone Areas = Not suitable for regions prone to seismic activity

Whiting = Ingredient in glaziers putty composed of calcium carbonate Linseed oil = Oil component in glaziers putty for consistency Dough consistency = Texture of glaziers putty used to secure window panes Face glazing = Method of securing window panes with putty

Exceptional tensile strength = High resistance to stretching forces Impact strength = Ability to withstand sudden forces or blows Polyvinyl butyral resin interlayers = Material bonding multiple plies of glass under heat and pressure Heat and pressure bonding = Process used to create security glass

Silica (sand) = Primary component providing strength and stability Flux (soda) = Ingredient aiding in lowering the melting point of silica Multiple plies of glass bonded under heat and pressure = Resulting structure in security glass production Rolled glass with wire mesh inserted = Description of wired glass manufacturing process
