What is 12mm 15mm clear float glass?
12mm and 15mm transparent float glass is a kind of flat glass produced by a specific process. It has excellent optical properties and a wide range of applications. The production process includes continuously flowing molten glass from a pool kiln and floating on the surface of a relatively dense tin liquid. Under the action of gravity and surface tension, the glass liquid spreads and flattens on the tin liquid surface to form a flat upper and lower surface. After hardening and cooling, it is led onto the transition roller table.

- 6000mm x 3210mm (approximately 20ft x 10.5ft)
Key Features of clear float glass:
- High transparency: Due to its special production process, float glass has a particularly smooth surface and uniform thickness. This process gives float glass extremely high transparency and can provide a clear view.
- Excellent optical properties: Float glass is not only highly transparent, but also has good optical properties, which makes it widely used in occasions that require high perspective. For example, in the fields of building doors and windows, car windshields, etc., float glass can ensure clear and unobstructed vision.
- Good flatness: Since float glass is naturally flattened on the surface of molten metal, its flatness is far better than other flat glass. This flatness is particularly important for applications that require high-precision planes, such as mirror making, automotive glass, etc.
- Wide range of applications: Due to its excellent performance, float glass is widely used in many fields such as building doors and windows, car windshields, high-end furniture and decoration, solar photovoltaic curtain walls, and precision electronics industries.
Applications of clear float glass:
- Electronics: Float glass is widely used in electronic products due to its high transparency and good hardness, such as smartphone screens, tablet computer displays, LCD TV panels, etc.
- Architecture: In high-end buildings and solar photovoltaic curtain walls, ultra-clear float glass is favored for its wide range of uses and broad market prospects.
- Home: Float glass can be used for interior decoration, such as making glass partitions, bathroom doors, glass tabletops, etc. Its high wear resistance and transparency make the home environment brighter and more comfortable.
- Automobile: Float glass is widely used in front and rear windshields, windows, rearview mirrors and other parts of automobiles. It has high transparency, good wear resistance, high strength, excellent thermal insulation and sound insulation, and is an indispensable material for manufacturing automotive glass.
- Decoration: Float glass is also commonly used in various decorative glass products, such as glass furniture, glass artworks, lamp glass, etc. Its pure colorless and compact structure make the decorative effect more outstanding.
- Other fields: Float glass can also be used in mirror making, optical instruments and other fields. Its smooth surface and small optical distortion make these applications possible.
