With the development of the modern science and technology, glass
technology and people's living standards, The function of building
glass is no longer just to meet the lighting requirements, but also
to have the ability to adjust light, thermal insulation, security
(bullet-proof, anti-theft, fire, anti - radiation,
anti-electromagnetic interference), Art Deco and other features. As
the demand develops, the glass forming and processing methods also
have a new development. Now, New technology glass such as a
laminated, tempered, ion exchange, glazed decorative, chemical
thermal decomposition and cathode sputtering has developed, which
has increased the amount use of glass in buildings rapidly. So
