With the improvement of people’s material and cultural life, tempered glass, renowned for its unique safety, heat resistance, and excellent impact performance, has gained increasing popularity and wide application in the fields of construction, furniture, and industrial equipment. However, in the production process of tempered glass, the cleaning process has always been a critical part. Traditional cleaning methods have faced challenges such as difficulty in thoroughly cleaning the glass surface, low efficiency, and cleaning dead spots. To address these issues, a new cleaning technology—snowflake cleaning technology—has recently been introduced.

Snowflake cleaning technology uses liquid carbon dioxide pressurized to a high-pressure state, which is then sprayed through a nozzle. At the nozzle, the carbon dioxide rapidly expands into a gaseous state, simultaneously reducing the temperature to -78.5°C, forming solid carbon dioxide (dry ice) particles. When these particles are sprayed onto the surface of an object, they absorb the surface’s heat, rapidly cooling and shrinking it, making it brittle, and then quickly converting back to a gaseous state. This process does not produce water or waste, causing no harm to the environment and leaving no residue, resulting in a cleaner removal of stains. Therefore, snowflake cleaning technology is efficient, environmentally friendly, and easy to use, and ensures safety.

In tempered glass manufacturing plants, snowflake cleaning technology can be applied to the surface cleaning of tempered glass. Compared to traditional cleaning methods, it offers several advantages:

Thorough cleaning: Snowflake cleaning technology can thoroughly clean the surface of tempered glass, while avoiding dead spots that are difficult to clean using traditional methods, ensuring a clean result.

Efficient energy-saving: This technology uses automated cleaning, improving the efficiency of cleaning, and the use of dry ice particles for cleaning eliminates the need for subsequent processing and cleaning, saving energy and labor costs.

Environmental safety: Snowflake cleaning technology is environmentally friendly, leaving no chemical residues, and poses no harm to operators and equipment.

In conclusion, snowflake cleaning technology has significant advantages in its application in tempered glass manufacturing plants, not only improving the quality of cleaning but also providing a more convenient and efficient solution for the production process. It is foreseeable that snowflake cleaning technology will gain wider application and promotion in the future tempered glass manufacturing industry.
