Glass is common in life, and it is also very common to use, from exterior Windows to indoor screens and doors, etc., in all kinds of cameras, mobile phones, TELEVISIONS, touch screens and so on, glass can be seen everywhere. However, glass was strangely neglected in China. After the collapse of the Roman Empire, China was a thousand years ahead of the Western world in material technology, but neglected glass, which also led to the failure to invent telescopes and microscopes.

The making technology of vitreous brick is the same as flat glass basically, what differs is the molding method. In between is dry air. It is mainly used for decorative projects or transparent modeling with thermal insulation requirements.
Cellophane, also known as glass film, has a variety of colors and designs. According to the different properties of the paper film, there are different properties. Most of the heat insulation, anti – infrared, anti – ultraviolet, explosion-proof and other functions.
