Enameled glass (Stemalit)


Stemalit - enameled glass - a sheet construction material composed of tempered glass with thickness of about 6-12 mm, coated on one side of an opaque ceramic paint (a mixture of pigments containing low-melting glass - fluxes). Various pigments are metal oxides, silicates and aluminates.

Spandrel glass manufactured using the casting, with further polishing or horizontal hire. By varying the composition of the glass, you can vary the color palette of tiles. The surface of the front side can be polished or uzorchatokovannaya. A more economical way of manufacturing stemalita - from ordinary window glass, but it is covered on one side of quality enamel paint and heat-treated to harden the glass and the fixing of paint on its surface.

By the application of spandrel glass are divided: for building facades or walls in the rooms. For each category stemalita must meet certain requirements. For example, a glass decorating the walls should be evenly colored, and must not contain any color of different shades. A stemalit for interior must not contain gaps and patches of color. Enameled glass allow to obtain a homogeneous effect of the facades (glazed with tinted windows and SLR). For lasting stemalita heated in the furnace sheets are intense air quenching. High resistance of glass to mechanical and chemical damage is caused by pigment coating, as when exposed to high temperature paint acquires the structure of glass and at the same time the surface of the vpekaetsya glass.

Stemalit has high physical and mathematical properties, and relates to the safety glass (able to withstand the impact of the metal ball weighing 800g, which fell from a height of 800mm), its strength in bending is 180 MPa and 900 MPa in compression. The material is different decorative, good weather resistance, heat resistance, durability. Colors and opacity of the material provide a wide application in interior decoration, for decorative purposes, the exterior walls of buildings facing the public and industrial use, concealing the floors, walls bearing structures in a variety of architectural projects and upgraded with different glazing systems (examples of various glass products .) Using stemalita can visually align the sections with ceilings and translucent areas uniform facade, while the material is lightweight, which is also one of its advantages. For the interior decoration of public buildings, facing facades of buildings, window sills often use the "Marble" - is another option enameled glass, thick flat glass sheets from black to greenish in color, often with brilliant iridescent specks. Surface marblita most polished, smooth, patterned or corrugated.

  2. Tempered glass is a single piece of glass that is strengthened through a immediate cooling process. This cooling process tempers the glass by blasting both the top and bottom surfaces with air.
