glass mug - Classified by Material
 
 

The main component of ordinary glass is silicon dioxide, amorphous inorganic non-metallic materials, generally by a variety of inorganic minerals as the main raw materials

 

Sodium calcium

glass cup

 

Main components: silicon dioxide, calcium oxide, sodium oxide


Features: Thick and low cost, but poor temperature resistance, prone to explosion during sudden cooling and heating, suitable for storing cold or warm water


Usage scenario: Daily cold water consumption or occasions requiring affordability

 
 

Tempered

glass cup

 

Process: Sodium calcium glass undergoes physical tempering treatment


Features: High strength, high temperature resistance (≤ 300 ℃), granular shape without sharp edges after crushing


Disadvantages: Low transparency and average temperature resistance

 
 

Borosilicate

glass cup

 

High borosilicate glass:
Ingredients: Boron trioxide and silicon dioxide
Features: Temperature resistance ≥ 150 ℃, strong chemical stability, safe and easy to clean fragments
Usage: Laboratory equipment, high temperature resistant water cup


Low/medium borosilicate glass: temperature resistance of about 100 ℃

 
 

Crystal

glass cup

 

Categories: Lead containing crystal cups (gorgeous appearance but may precipitate lead) and lead-free crystal cups (safer)


Features: High transparency and good texture, but poor temperature resistance (lead containing products should not contain acidic beverages, lead-free products are prone to freezing and cracking)


Applicable scenarios: Decoration or high-end wine utensils

 

 

 

 

 

GLASS COFFEE CUP 1

 

 

Glass Mug - Classified By Structure


1.Single layer Small Clear Shot Glass Mug
Features: Simple process, low price, but poor thermal insulation


2. Double layered glass cup
Craftsmanship: There are two types: tail (with small droplets at the bottom of the cup) and tailless (flat bottom)


Features: Insulated and heat-resistant, suitable for storing hot drinks; The inner layer can be customized with patterns, commonly used for promotional gifts


Design: Includes high mouthed cup (deeper filter), different cup bottoms (regular/crystal/thick bottom), etc

 

 

 

 

Comprehensive Recommendations

 

Daily use: Recommended high borosilicate 50ML Clear Shot Glass Mug (temperature resistant and safe) or tempered glass cups (drop resistant)


Decoration requirement: Optional lead-free crystal glass cup (avoid lead containing version)


Economical choice: Sodium calcium glass cup (limited to cold water only) or double-layer glass cup (practical insulation)
