What's the difference between FRP and toughened glass?

Answer:

Glass fiber reinforced plastics, glass fiber reinforced plastics. It is a kind of composite material made of glass fiber and its products (glass cloth, band, felt, yarn, etc.) as reinforcing material and synthetic resin as base material. Tempered glass is made by cutting, edging, washing and drying the flat glass according to the requirements of the product, and then heating it to near the softening temperature of the glass, and then rapidly cooled. Tempered glass surface forming uniform compressive stress, the inner layer presents the corresponding Zhang Yingli, so toughened glass is a kind of high strength safety glass. The flexural strength and impact strength are more than four times that of ordinary glass. After breaking, the fragments are granular, and the use safety of the product is improved.

Toughened glass is a kind of prestressed glass, in order to improve the strength of the glass, the methods commonly used in chemistry or physics, formed on the surface of glass glass under compressive stress, first offset surface stress force, so as to improve the bearing capacity of reinforced glass, its wind, cold, impact etc..

The concept of composite material means that a material can not meet the use requirements, and needs to be composed of two or more than two materials together to form another material that can meet the requirements of people, that is composite material. For example, a single kind of glass fiber, although high in strength, but the fiber is loose, can only withstand tension, can not bear bending, shear and compressive stress, it is difficult to make a fixed geometry, is loose software. If they are bonded together with synthetic resins, they can be made of rigid products of a fixed shape, bearing both tensile and flexural, compressive, and shear stresses
