Customized Glass
Fish tank glass is a special glass material used to make fish tanks. It usually has high transparency, strength, toughness and corrosion resistance to ensure the beauty, safety and durability of the fish tank.
Main types
1. Ordinary glass:
Features: colorless and transparent, good light transmittance, but relatively low strength and toughness, easy to break.
Application: suitable for small and low-grade fish tanks.
2. Float glass:
Features: flat and smooth surface, good light transmittance, high strength, good toughness, not easy to break.
Application: widely used in the production of medium and high-end fish tanks, especially large fish tanks.
3. Tempered glass:
Features: After special process treatment, it has high strength and toughness, can withstand large external force impact and is not easy to break. At the same time, tempered glass will form smaller granular fragments when broken, reducing the harm to the human body.
Application: suitable for the production of fish tanks that require higher safety, such as fish tanks in children's rooms.
4. Ultra-white glass:
Features: The light transmittance is as high as 91.5% or more, crystal clear, and is known as the "Crystal Prince". At the same time, ultra-white glass has a low iron content, so that its edges will not turn green and are more beautiful.
Application: Suitable for the production of high-end fish tanks, especially for occasions where the beautiful posture of fish needs to be displayed.
Performance characteristics
1. High transparency: Fish tank glass usually has high transparency, which can clearly show the scene in the fish tank and the swimming posture of fish.
2. High strength: Fish tank glass has high strength and toughness, and can withstand certain external impacts without breaking easily.
3. Corrosion resistance: Fish tank glass can resist the erosion of various chemicals, ensuring the long-term use of fish tanks.
4. Toughness: Fish tank glass with good toughness is not easy to break when subjected to external impact, which increases the safety of fish tanks.
Application scenarios
Fish tank glass is not limited to home decoration, educational display and public aquariums due to its high transparency, high strength and corrosion resistance. As people's pursuit of quality of life and their attention to the natural environment continue to increase, the application prospects of fish tank glass will be broader.
1. Home decoration
Fish tank glass is an important element in home decoration, which can add light and vitality to the space and make the environment more beautiful. Placing it in indoor spaces such as living rooms, bedrooms or study rooms can be used as a unique decoration to enhance the grade and taste of the home. At the same time, aquatic organisms such as fish and water plants in the fish tank can bring a sense of tranquility and relaxation, which helps to create a warm and comfortable home atmosphere.
2. Educational display
Fish tank glass is also widely used in the field of education. In science classrooms or biological laboratories, fish tanks can be used as teaching tools to help students understand scientific knowledge such as the growth habits and ecological environment of aquatic organisms. Through observation and experiments, students can understand the mysteries of biology more intuitively and increase their interest and love for natural sciences.
3. Public aquariums
Public aquariums are important places for displaying aquatic organisms, and fish tank glass plays a vital role in them. Large aquariums usually use high-strength and high-transparency materials such as tempered glass or ultra-clear glass to make fish tanks to ensure that visitors can clearly see various rare aquatic organisms. These fish tanks are not only ornamental, but also can popularize aquatic knowledge and raise public awareness of marine life protection.
4. Public places
Malls/shopping centers: Large aquariums or fish tanks are often used as decorative highlights in malls or shopping centers to attract customers to stop and watch.
Hotel/restaurant: Fish tanks made of fish tank glass can enhance the beauty and grade of the overall environment in hotel lobbies, restaurants and other places.
Public aquariums: As the main display tool of public aquariums, fish tank glass needs to have high strength, high transparency and other characteristics to ensure the display effect.
FAQ
1. Cracks in fish tank glass
Problem: Cracks in fish tank glass may be caused by external impact, temperature changes or defects in the manufacturing process.
Solution:Evaluate the crack situation: First check the size, location and depth of the crack to evaluate its impact on the structural strength of the fish tank.
Minor crack treatment: For small and shallow cracks, glass repair agents can be used to fill and repair. However, it should be noted that the water level of the fish tank should be lowered after repair to avoid excessive pressure.
Severe crack treatment: For large or deep cracks, it is recommended to replace the entire fish tank glass or the entire fish tank to ensure safety.
2. Scratches on fish tank glass
Problem: Scratches appear on the surface of the fish tank glass, affecting the viewing effect.
Solution:Precautions: Use soft cleaning tools such as sponges or soft cloths, and avoid using metal brushes or hard cleaners.
Minor scratch treatment: Use abrasive paste to gently wipe the scratched area until the scratch disappears. Then thoroughly clean the fish tank and wipe it dry to ensure that there is no residue.
Moderate scratch treatment: Use glass repair agent to fill and repair. It is also necessary to clean the surface of the fish tank first, then evenly apply the repair agent and wait for it to dry naturally.
Severe scratch treatment: Seek professional repair services to ensure the repair effect and the safety of the fish tank.
3. Fish tank glass burst
Problem: The fish tank glass bursts suddenly, which may be caused by temperature changes, excessive water pressure, external force impact or manufacturing defects.
Solution:(1) Preventive measures:
Choose a brand fish tank from a regular manufacturer and keep the invoice.
The fish tank should be placed firmly, avoid direct exposure to the sun, and stay away from aisles and doorways to avoid bumps.
Check the fish tank and surrounding safety hazards. If there are signs of bursting, turn off the power immediately.
The electrical equipment and plugs of the fish tank should be fixed in a position where water is not easily intruded. The location of the fish tank should preferably have a waterproof design.
(2) Post-burst treatment:
Turn off the power immediately to ensure the safety of personnel.
Clean the fish tank fragments to avoid scratches.
Check the cause of the fish tank burst, such as temperature, water pressure, external force, etc., and take corresponding preventive measures.
Consider replacing a new fish tank.
4. Scale on the fish tank glass
Problem: Scale appears on the surface of the fish tank glass, affecting the viewing effect.
Solution:Use acidic substances: such as citric acid, white vinegar or baking soda, dilute with water, and gently apply acidic water with white cotton to the scale. After repeated application several times, the scale will disappear quickly.
Use special cleaners: Choose a cleaner specifically for fish tank glass for cleaning.
Regular cleaning: Clean the fish tank glass regularly to avoid scale accumulation.
In summary, fish tank glass may encounter problems such as cracks, scratches, bursts and scale during use. For these problems, corresponding preventive measures and solutions can be taken to ensure the ornamental effect and service life of the fish tank. At the same time, it is also necessary to pay attention to the maintenance and care of the fish tank, regularly check the status of the fish tank glass, and deal with new problems in a timely manner.
