Paper-thin glass can withstand the impact of 150km / h

A Chinese company introduced the world's thinnest float glass that can be used in display devices.

China Triumph International Engineering Company (CTIEC) launched 0.12mm thick float glass , just over 0.025mm on average in April, according to People. Despite the thinness of paper, this type of glass is very solid.

It can be affected by a 55gr metal ball falling from a height of one meter. This effect is equivalent to a car hitting the wall at 150km / h.Ultra-thin glass is an important material for display devices, according to Cao Xin, deputy director of CTIEC's glass manufacturing engineering research institute. This is the basic material for mobile phones, computers and TV screens.

The new ultra-thin glass made by China reduces the price in the international market. Reliability and innovation are important factors to help the country expand its ultra-thin glass market share.

According to Bengbu CNBM Information Display Materials, the Chinese company produces glass display devices. Its international market share is almost zero before 2014 but now has increased to about 40%."We are in the top 3 in the world in terms of market share," said Ren Hongcan, manager at the company.
