car windshield

The automobile industry and the glass industry belong to two different fields. The former belongs to the machinery manufacturing industry and the latter belongs to the light industry. However, judging from the development process of automobiles, the relationship between the two is getting closer and closer. Glass technology has completely penetrated into the automotive industry and has become an indispensable member of the automotive technology field. Nowadays, people always research and develop automobile glass from the perspective of automobile safety and appearance, and constantly introduce new varieties.

Laminated glass refers to using a transparent adhesive plastic film between two or three layers of glass, combining the strength and toughness of plastic with the hardness of glass to increase the glass's resistance to breakage. Tempered glass refers to quenching ordinary glass to form a certain internal stress in the internal structure, thereby strengthening the strength of the glass. When broken by impact, the glass will split into small fragments with blunt edges, making it less likely to cause harm to the occupants. Area tempered glass is a new type of tempered glass. It has been specially treated so that when it is broken by impact, the cracks in the glass can still maintain a certain degree of clarity, ensuring that the driver's field of view is not affected. At present, automobile front windshields are mainly made of laminated tempered glass and laminated area tempered glass, which can withstand strong impact forces.

Maintenance method

There are many types of glass water sold in the domestic market, but they are mainly divided into three types: glass water for summer, antifreeze glass water for winter and special antifreeze glass water. Among them, glass water used in summer is mainly used to remove flying insect residues on the mirror surface.

In the usual glass maintenance process, the appropriate glass water should be selected according to the specific conditions of the season and weather. When you find that the surface of the windshield is blurry, cleaning it with appropriate glass water will make it much brighter. If you find that the glass is reflective at night, you can also wipe it with glass water. In addition, when running at high speed or in a lot of dust, the glass water will be used up very quickly, so you should also pay attention to injecting new glass water immediately.

Some car owners think that cleaning the glass is just a matter of cleaning and decontamination, so they use washing powder or detergent instead of glass water; some car owners are more cheap and use clean water instead, which all have hidden dangers. There are some sediments in chemical detergents such as washing powder, which will easily corrode the rubber tube over time, block the water spray port, and in severe cases, damage the motor. Ordinary detergents will also continue to corrode rubber tubes and accelerate the hardening of catalytic wiper strips. When the hardened tape scrapes the windshield, it will accelerate the surface of the windshield to be scratched and scratched. If you replace the wiper blades, the cost will be dozens of times the price of glass water.

Although ordinary water is very clean, there are also a lot of chemical residues in it. Over time, it will also cause the water spout to be clogged and affect the water spray. Long-term use will also increase the friction on the mirror surface, making it easy for the wiper to leave slight scratches on the mirror surface when cleaning.
