Because of its high strength and strong impact resistance, tempered glass is widely used in various occasions, such as architecture, furniture, automobiles, etc. However, due to various reasons, tempered glass sometimes bursts, what should be done at this time?
1. Observe the degree of bursting
First of all, it is necessary to observe the degree of bursting of the tempered glass. If there are only cracks on the surface and no debris scattered, then some simple methods can be taken to repair them; If the burst is severe and a large amount of debris is scattered, then leave the area immediately to avoid being injured by the debris.
2. Local repair methods
For tempered glass with only surface cracks, the method of local repair can be adopted. The specific steps are as follows:
1.Use a towel or sponge to soak an acidic solution (such as acetic acid or citric acid) and apply it to the crack. Be careful not to use an acidic solution that is too strong to avoid corrosion of the glass.
2.Use another clean towel or sponge dipped in an appropriate amount of water and gently wipe the surface of the glass to thoroughly wash off the acidic solution.
3.Apply colorless nail polish or car wax to the cracks to act as a seal.
3. Replace tempered glass
If the degree of cracking of the tempered glass is too severe to be repaired locally, or there are still safety hazards after repair, then replacing the tempered glass should be considered. When replacing tempered glass, the following points should be noted:
1.Select qualified tempered glass to ensure that its strength and impact resistance meet the requirements.
2.Before installation, make sure that the dimensions of the new glass are the same as the original glass to avoid installation difficulties.
3.During installation, follow the installation instructions provided by the manufacturer to ensure that the new glass can be securely held in place.
4.After installation, an inspection test is carried out to ensure that the new glass will not pose a safety hazard in use.
In conclusion, tempered glass should be treated according to the specific situation after it is burst. If it can be repaired locally, then you can try to repair it yourself; If it cannot be repaired or there is a safety hazard, then the tempered glass should be replaced in time. Pay attention to safety during the handling process to avoid being injured by debris.
