Partially Tempered Glass

Partially tempered glass (thermally strengthened glass) undergoes a slower cooling process than fully tempered glass. This process creates a lower, but approximately twice as high, strength level on the glass's surface compared to fully tempered glass. This balanced strength provides excellent protection, particularly against thermal stresses, while maintaining the glass's optical quality and flatness.
If it breaks, it doesn't shatter into tiny pieces like fully tempered glass; instead, it breaks into larger, less sharp fragments, although these fragments usually remain in the frame. This feature makes it an ideal option for laminated and insulating glass units where the safety of property and the protection of the glass are more important than the safety of life.

Applications and Key Properties of Partially Tempered Glass

Partially tempered glass is an indispensable performance product for architectural projects where high structural strength, low heat-induced fracture risk, and optical uniformity are prioritized over the need for laminated glass.
