This is the most common type of glass and is made from silica, soda ash, and lime. It is used in many applications, including windows, bottles, and mirrors.
This type is resistant to thermal shock and is used in applications where extreme temperatures are involved, such as lab equipment and cookware.
This type of glass has been treated to be stronger and more durable than regular glass. It is often used in applications where safety is a concern, such as car windows and shower doors.
This type of glass is made by sandwiching a layer of plastic between two layers of glass. It is used in applications where safety or security is a concern, such as bulletproof windows.
This glass is coated with a thin layer of metal or other material to reduce heat transfer. It is used in energy-efficient windows and buildings.
This is a standard method of producing large, flat sheets of glass. It involves floating a layer of molten glass on top of a bed of molten metal, such as tin or lead, to create a smooth, even surface.
This method involves rolling a sheet of molten glass through a series of rollers to create a stronger piece of glass.
This method consists in blowing air into a gather of molten glass to create a hollow object, such as a vase or a bottle.
This method involves pressing a gather of molten glass into a mold and then blowing air into it to shape the glass into the desired form.
This method consists in pouring molten glass into a mold to create a shaped object.
This method involves heating a gather of glass in a kiln and then casting it into a mold to create a shaped object.
