Patent EP-1414762-A1 (EP)
Inventor: SEIDEL HORST
IPC: C03B27/04
Filed: 2002-03-18
Abstract: The invention relates to a method for thermally tempering glass panes with a low probability of failure when subjected to mechanical and thermal stress, particularly in the case of fire. The glass pane is heated in the middle of the pane to a temperature greater than the transformation temperature (Tg) and in the outer surfaces to a temperature greater than the Littleton temperature or softening temperature (TEW) of the glass material that forms the glass pane. The glass pane is then cooled by intensively cooling its outer surfaces so that it has, at an ambient temperature (Tamb), a permanent compressive stress in its outer surfaces. It has been shown that glass panes tempered by a simple thermal tempering can be produced while using the inventive method that, compared to glass panes that have been subjected to a simple thermal tempering according to conventional methods, have a lower probability of failure in the case of fire and a higher mechanical and thermal resistance.
