Self-cleaning Glass Market to Record Ascending Growth by 2026
Global Self-cleaning Glass Market: Overview Self-cleaning glass is defined as a specific type of glass with a surface that keeps itself free of dirt and other harsh environmental conditions. It is a low-maintenance glass that is made by depositing a thin layer of chemical that has photolytic and hydrophilic properties on the surface of te glass. This makes the glass easier to clean. Self-cleaning glass is fog and glare resistant. The material applied on the glass does not change its mechanical, thermal, and acoustic properties. Self-cleaning glass is used in areas, such as facades and areas with higher elevation that are hard to reach for manual cleaning. It has a layer of titanium oxide over the surface that undergoes a chemical reaction and breaks dirt and other materials into smaller pieces that can be easily washed off by rain or on the application of water. The layer is also hydrophilic in nature, i.e. it attracts water unlike normal glass, which is hydrophobic, which repels...
