Why does glass crack on its own?
1 Answers
Automotive glass may crack spontaneously mainly due to poor glass quality, uneven heating and cooling, or improper film installation. 1. Poor glass quality: Generally, tempered glass contains impurities and bubbles. Higher-quality glass has fewer impurities and bubbles. Poor tempering or substandard quality can lead to issues. 2. Uneven heating and cooling: When the temperature variation of the glass film is too extreme, stress deformation can occur in the glass, causing it to crack. 3. Improper film installation: During film installation, if the glass is not heated evenly and a heat gun is used to shape the film, localized heating can cause uneven thermal expansion and stress deformation, leading to glass cracking.
