Why is the insulating glass filled with argon?
Insulating glass is composed of two or more layers of flat glass. Around with high strength and high air tightness composite binder, two or more pieces of glass and sealing strip, glass strip bonding, sealing. The middle is filled with dry gas, and the frame is filled with desiccant to ensure the dryness of the air between the glass sheets.
Can choose the glass original piece of all sorts of different performance according to the requirement, if colorless transparent float glass embossed glass, absorbing glass, heat reflection glass, wire glass, toughened glass and frame (aluminum frame or glass strip etc.), via cementation, welding or fusion is made. Hollow glass can be used 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12mm thick slice of original glass, air layer thickness can be used 6, 9, 12mm interval.
So why is the insulating glass filled with argon? First of all, because argon is an inert gas, the heat transfer coefficient limit of insulating glass can be reduced by 5% compared with vacuum, which means better insulation performance. As far as a window is concerned, the heat loss in the room is mainly through the conduction of the window frame, the radiation of the glass, the convection between the gap of the window page and the door frame, and so on. Therefore, "hollow glass" came into being.
In addition to the invisible "energy saving" feature, argon-filled insulating glass also has some practical functions:
1. Heat insulation and argon filling can obviously reduce the heat transfer coefficient and effectively prevent the heat absorbed by the outer glass from flowing into the room.
2. It also has a certain influence on the shading coefficient. The inert gas argon can effectively block ultraviolet rays.
