Tempered Glass
鋼化玻璃
是由浮法玻璃經過快速冷卻熱處理而製成，強度較 浮法玻璃高4至6倍，且破裂時只會形成小的碎片， 不會有大塊鋒利的碎片。但在強化後，強化玻璃上 有任何損壞或裂痕，都會造成整片玻璃的碎裂。
Tempered or toughened glass is a type of safety glass processed by controlled thermal or chemical treatments to increase its strength compared with normal glass. Tempering puts the outer surfaces into compression and the interior into tension. Such stress would cause the glass, when broken, to crumble into small granular chunks instead of splintering into jagged shards as plate glass (a.k.a. annealed glass) does. The granular chunks are less likely to cause injury.
