Fracture glass

Hi there! Let me explain to you what a fracture glass is like you are a 5-year-old kid.

Have you ever dropped a glass or seen someone break a glass accidentally? Well, when you break a glass, it creates small pieces of broken glass that are called fragments. But did you know that not all glass breaks the same way? Sometimes, when you hit or bend a glass with a lot of force, it doesn't break into small pieces but instead, it cracks into bigger pieces. This is called a fracture glass!

A fracture glass happens when the force applied to the glass is strong enough to create a crack that grows through the glass. Think of the crack like a line that runs across the glass. This line will keep spreading slowly until the glass breaks into large pieces. It's like drawing a line with a pencil, but instead of stopping, you keep drawing and drawing until you have two separate sections.

People can make a fracture glass happen on purpose by heating or cooling the glass in a special way. When you do this, the glass becomes more brittle, which means it's easier to break with force. Fracture glass is used for many things, from mirrors to windshields in cars, to help prevent serious injuries in case of an accident.

So, in simple words, the fracture glass is a type of glass that breaks into bigger pieces rather than turning into small shards or fragments. It's done by applying a lot of force to the glass, which creates a crack line that keeps spreading until it breaks. I hope this explanation helps you understand what a fracture glass is!
