Topics regarding quality of glass, its processing and its application in building.
I am looking for a soil-repelent for the detergent products of my company, and I read the recent newspapers which spoke about the SGG Aquaclean, and I think maybe the repellent raw material would be useful for my products. What do you think? Someone knows about the chemical family of this product?
Thanks
I work on a large public aquarium in Brasil , south America , and my problem is:
Our largest tank have 14 windows panels of laminated glass ( Butyral type ) of 2x2 m and 65mm of tickiness each ( 6 layers of 10mm glass panels ) .
After one year running , only one of the glass pannels ( the visitors pannel ) of 3 windows has broken in a single breakage .Our glass furnisher believes that the glass brokened due to a bad handling during the instalation .
I am starting to renovate my house this spring and I am planning to replace also all my windows. I have visited a window manufacturer and he suggest me to install insulating glass filled with argon. Now my question is, does argon gas remain inside the insulating glass a lifetime or escapes earlier? Is it economically worth-having argon inside the insulating glass?
I was wondering, how much time a low-e coating last inside the insulating glass?
I WOULD BE MOST INTERESTED IN ANY PRODUCTS WHICH HAVE BEEN USED SUCCESSFULY IN SEALING THE SURFACE OF SANDBLASTED GLASS WHICH DO NOT LEAVE A BLOTCHY APPEARANCE, AND CAN WITH STAND CONSTANT CLEANING.
I would like to know what is the average tolerance when cutting glass (with machinery)?
In our business we use curved panels of tempered glass in windshield assemblies. We have a piece with three scratches approx. 14 mm long, and penetrating the surface. We have polished them out with a product called "Scratch Lifter" purchased at "Liquidresins.com". My question is - does polishing tempered glass to remove a surface imperfection such as a scratch compromise the structural integrity of the pane of glass? The glass we use is produced by Trend Glass if this has any bearing. Also, the polishing action did not produce any noticable distortion to the glass.
Do you have any resources on how to produce a gold mirror? It is sometimes called
"Angel Gilding
". I was hoping someone had an old formula for it. Thank you,

Which gas has better thermal performance (U-value) in insulating glass: argon or krypton? Is it possible to give me some numbers? Thank you.
Hi,
I came across with a very curious information. Is it true that in Venice a glass bridge will be built? Would it be possible to get more information about that? Who is the architect? Where it will stand? Thanks for your help
