AF glass (Anti-Fingerprint Glass) is a type of glass with a special coating on its surface that effectively prevents fingerprints and smudges from adhering while being easy to clean. This coating typically consists of a combination of hydrophobic and oleophobic materials, forming a protective layer that reduces the adherence of fingerprints and dirt.
The manufacturing process of AF glass mainly includes the following steps:
Cleaning
The finished glass cover needs to undergo thorough cleaning before coating to remove dust, grease, and other impurities. This step usually employs ultrasonic cleaning methods.
Coating
Through spraying or dipping technology, a uniform anti-fingerprint coating is applied to the glass surface. The coating materials are typically hydrophobic and oleophobic chemicals that reduce the adherence of fingerprints and smudges.
Curing
After coating, the layers need to be cured to enhance adhesion and durability. Curing is usually done in a high-temperature furnace, with the temperature and time adjusted according to the coating materials and thickness.
Inspection
After curing, the AF glass undergoes comprehensive quality inspection, including coating uniformity, anti-fingerprint effectiveness, abrasion resistance, and other indicators, to ensure each piece meets design requirements.
Packaging
The finished AF glass is cleaned and dried, then packaged in a dust-proof manner to ensure it remains uncontaminated and undamaged during transportation and storage.
AF GLASS Acceptance Standards
Our AF glass must pass strict acceptance standards before leaving the factory, including:
Coating Quality
Light Transmission
Surface Hardness
Ease of Cleaning
Size and Thickness
Production Capacity and Lead Time
Supplier Reputation and Service
When purchasing AF glass, it is important to consider coating quality, light transmission, surface hardness, ease of cleaning, size and thickness, production capacity and lead time, and supplier reputation and service. By thoroughly understanding these key points, you can ensure that the AF glass you purchase will meet specific application requirements and provide excellent performance and user experience.
