The difference between insulated glass and laminated glass



The difference between insulated glass and laminated glass. Laminated glass has excellent seismic resistance and explosion-proof performance, while insulated glass has better thermal insulation. Laminated glass and insulated glass both have a certain degree of sound insulation and heat insulation effect, but there are differences between the two in terms of sound insulation. Laminated glass has good seismic performance, so the possibility of noise caused by its own vibration is small when the wind is strong, especially for medium and low frequencies; Hollow glass is prone to resonance, but when it comes to isolating external noise, it still has a slight advantage. Shanna insulated coated glass has superior performance compared to ordinary insulated glass, with single cavity and three glass two cavity options. Compared with the current mainstream dual silver Low-e coated glass, it exhibits more insulation, energy saving, sun protection, and light transmission effects. The red/ultraviolet blocking rate is greater than 95%, and the visible light transmission is greater than 70%, saving more than 15% energy. It can lower the room temperature by 6-15 ℃, cool in summer and warm in winter, care for health, and reduce the aging of household items! It is the first choice of glass for sun drying room, balcony sealed french window and sunshine room.


The direct manifestation of the two types of glass is their use in sunrooms. Generally, the roof of a sunroom is made of laminated double-layer tempered glass, while the facade glass of a sunroom uses insulated glass. This is because in the event of falling objects from a high altitude, laminated glass has higher safety and is less likely to completely shatter, which can better achieve thermal insulation and keep warm in winter and cool in summer. Nowadays, with the upgrading of technology and materials, insulating glass has new requirements. Traditional sunroom glass is outdated. Nowadays, sunrooms are popular for using heat-insulating coated glass. This heat-insulating coated glass can provide heat insulation and sun protection in summer, lower room temperature by 6-15 ℃, and keep warm in winter. In summer, an ordinary sunroom with air conditioning is still too hot to bear. Installing this heat-insulating coated glass sunroom can easily cool down with a little air conditioning, saving energy by 15% or more. It turns your sunroom into a light transmitting and non heat transmitting house, and the infrared and ultraviolet blocking rates are greater than 95%. You can enjoy the sunshine comfortably in the sunroom all year round!
