What is the black area on the windshield called?
1 Answers
The black area on the windshield mainly consists of black particles, which help distribute heat more evenly to prevent the windshield from cracking. Here is some information about automotive windshields: 1. Laminated glass refers to a type of glass where a transparent adhesive plastic film is placed between two or three layers of glass, combining the toughness of plastic with the hardness of glass to enhance the glass's resistance to breakage. 2. Tempered glass is made by quenching ordinary glass to create internal stresses, thereby strengthening the glass. When impacted and broken, it shatters into small, blunt-edged fragments, reducing the risk of injury to passengers. 3. Zoned tempered glass is a new type of tempered glass that undergoes special treatment. When impacted and cracked, the glass maintains a certain level of clarity, ensuring the driver's field of vision remains unaffected. Currently, most automotive windshields are made of laminated tempered glass or laminated zoned tempered glass, which can withstand strong impacts.
