Q:Could a home be built of glass bricks?Would it be energy efficient, and would the glass blocks have the strength to support the outer walls?

no...because glass is actually a supercooled liquid which will eventually collapse on its own weight(i get this info from Discovery channel) and glass will both absorb and reflect heat equally.....so,u would be dying because of the heat during the day...

Q:Curtain wall energy conservation generally use what material

The curtain wall itself uses hollow glass (more stringent can use LOW-E glass), broken bridge insulation aluminum. Curtain walls and building cracks using fire insulation materials (commonly used rock wool) filled.

Q:What does LOW-E mean in architectural glass?

Simply put, low-e glass is low-radiation glass, solar energy can be far from the infrared part of the energy reflected back to play a role in energy saving!

Q:Curtains can not pull the first ten centimeters, glass cover, what way to cover

Plus a curtain so just can block the live

Q:Theoretically, if glass dropped and the stress incurred was just less than that required to shatter it, would the next drop, no matter how small, break the glass? If not can it continue to take infinitely more stress damage as long as they each individually do not surpass its stress limit, even though their sum does?Note: I am asking this with the real life application of the glass backs of iPhones in mind

You should investigate what the amount of energy is required to cause a defect either in manufacturing or physical damage to initiate and propagate a crack. The defect may be improper heat treatment, a foreign inclusion, a void in the glass matrix, a nick or scratch in the casting process or in handling in the production line, for example. Each cycle of dropping could potentially have enough energy to further propagate the crack until full fracture is achieved, You may want to investigate fracture mechanics. .

Q:Manganese dioxide itself is black, why as a colorant added to the glass to show purple it

Ordinary pigments are faded by exposure to ultraviolet light in the sun or in the presence of oxygen and sulfur dioxide in the air; but the color glass is melted with glass because of the metal that acts as a coloring agent, so it can withstand sun and rain With the growing development of science and technology, the variety of color glass will be more and more colorful, our life will be because of its embellishment and decoration and become colorful.

Q:Building glass paste insulation film easy to use? Who used?

Insulation effect is obvious, especially the sun drying house, the summer is too hot. After film temperature can drop 2-3 degrees. Prices are different according to the actual situation.

Q:The Louvre pyramid in Paris, France, is built of glass panes. There are 4 panes in the top row, and each additional row has 4 more panes than the previous row. 1.Write a series in summation notation to describe the total number of glass panes in n rows of the pyramid. 2.If the pyramid were made of 18 complete rows, how many panes would it have? 3.The actual pyramid has 11 panes less than a complet 18-row pyramid because of the space for the entrance. Find the total number of panes in the Louvre pyramid.

So the first row has 4 panes, the second 8, the third 12, and so on. The nth row would have 4n panes. 1. The total number of glass panes in n rows is 4*1 + 4*2 + 4*3 + ... + 4n or, in summation notation: n ∑ 4i i=1 2. n=18 4*1 + 4*2 + 4*3 + ... + 4*18 = 4 (1+2+3+ ... + 18) = 4 * 18 * 19 / 2 [using the well-known formula for triangular numbers*] = 36*19 = 684 * T(n) = n(n+1)/2 3. 684-11 = 673

Q:There is a clear coat of build up o my glasses lense. Not sure what it is but I can feel it when I scrape it with my finger. Looks like something froze on it haha best way to describe it I guess ha. Was thinking acetone but dont want to mess up the lense. Any ideas?

Are you sure it's not the scratch coat or the antireflective coating peeling off? If so, take them back to wear you got them and have them make a new pair of lenses. You may not have bought the glasses knowing that was on there as some lenses (most now) come with a scratch coat already on the lenses. From your description that is what it sounds like. Otherwise, try a Mr. Clean Eraser if Dawn and water have not worked. You could try acetone but you have to stand by with water to get it off right away or it could cloud the lenses too.
