Laminated glass:
Commonly used interlayer films for laminated glass include: PVB, SGP, EVA, PU, etc. This film can not only resist the continuous impact of heavy objects such as hammers, but also resist the penetration of bullets for a long time. Even if the glass breaks, it will be stuck to the film, and the surface of the broken glass will remain smooth. Laminated glass has a high safety factor, which can effectively prevent glass breakage and injuries and penetration and falling incidents.
Insulated tempered glass:
High-performance insulated tempered glass has a special metal film that can reach a shielding coefficient of 0.22-0.49, which can effectively reduce the load of air conditioners, save energy and reduce carbon emissions; tempered glass has a higher safety factor, and its height is 4-5 times that of ordinary glass. times, the thermal stability is also very good. Even if broken, it will be broken into small obtuse-angle particles similar to honeycombs, which will not cause significant harm to the human body; it can block solar radiation and prevent discomfort caused by radiant heat; it has strong sound insulation function , can maintain a quiet home environment indoors; at the same time, it is rich in color and beautiful.
First of all, both laminated glass and insulating glass have sound and heat insulation effects to a certain extent. However, laminated glass has better earthquake resistance and explosion-proof performance, while insulating glass has better thermal insulation.
In terms of sound insulation, there are different differences between the two. Due to its good seismic resistance, laminated glass is less likely to cause noise due to its own vibration when the wind is strong, especially for medium and low frequencies. Insulated glass is prone to resonance.
But when it comes to isolating external noise, insulated glass still has a slight advantage. Therefore, depending on the place, the glass to be selected is also different.
For ordinary homes, insulating glass is a common choice. If you live in a high-rise building with strong winds and relatively low noise from the outside world, laminated glass is also a good choice.
The direct manifestation of the two types of glass is the use in the sun room. Generally, the roof of the sunroom is made of laminated double-layer tempered glass. The facade glass of the sun room uses insulating glass.
Because if something falls from a height, laminated glass is safer and less likely to completely shatter. The use of insulating glass for facade glass can better achieve thermal insulation, making the sun room warm in winter and cool in summer.
