Generally, the material for making a glass frame is not particularly heavy. Because if a spectacle frame is too heavy, there will be a strong sense of oppression, and if it is worn for a long time, it will feel uncomfortable and very depressing. Therefore, many people now choose glasses frames with lighter materials when they go to wear glasses. The weight of a pair of spectacle frames is determined by the material of the spectacle frame, so what kind of spectacle frame is lighter? Here is the specific analysis and answer.
At present, the carbon fiber material is the lightest among all glasses frame materials. Material tests have confirmed that carbon fiber of the same volume is 29% lighter than the titanium frame and 1/3 lighter than metal. Its essential properties determine that it is relatively light, and the weight of the nose bridge can be greatly reduced when wearing it.
Carbon fiber is a new generation of reinforcing fiber. It is soft on the outside and rigid on the inside, giving it the reputation of "black gold". Its quality is lighter than metal aluminum, but its strength is higher than steel. And it also has the characteristics of corrosion resistance, high modulus, skin affinity, and is an important material in national defense, military industry and civilian use. So far, only a few countries such as Germany, Japan, and the United States have mastered the core technology of carbon fiber production. Undoubtedly - new technologies and new processes brought about by new materials have an important driving role in our country's economy, scientific and technological development, and the progress of basic disciplines.
Carbon fiber, a new material, is as strong as a rock and as tough as a hair, satisfying the tireless pursuit of quality in the field of materials since ancient times. As long as we use it properly, we can make a qualitative breakthrough in the products we use. Considering the design principle and performance of the aircraft, carbon fiber, known as "black gold", is undoubtedly the first choice for reducing energy consumption and being more environmentally friendly. Compared with other materials, carbon fiber material has more advantages, such as it is ultra-light, super-strong, wear-resistant, corrosion-resistant, high-modulus, environmentally friendly, skin-friendly, etc. Therefore, it is widely used in the aerospace, defense industry, automotive industry, energy It is also widely used in equipment, construction engineering, and other fields.
Developed countries use carbon fiber for racing and aviation, and apply carbon fiber to glasses, which also brings new vitality to glasses. The material is lighter, healthier, and more environmentally friendly. Carbon fiber temple design, distinctive features, like a classic rhombus lattice pattern like a Gucci brand bag, convey a low-key and gorgeous temperament, making your charm unstoppable, fashionable, and eye-catching!
The light glasses frame makes you forget that you are wearing glasses; the temples with a thickness of only 2mm are lighter than others; the edges are rounded and the fit is not oppressive. The sturdy nature of the carbon fiber material also ensures that the ultra-thin temples will not break. Imported German high-purity carbon fiber raw materials, which are lighter than aluminum, less than 1/4 of steel, but 20 times stronger than iron. The glasses frames made with it are wear-resistant, impact-resistant, soft and super-elastic, and resistant to high and low temperatures. Features. Using medical silicone nose pads, soft and hygienic; OBE screws, durable.
Except for the carbon fiber material, the glasses frame made of pure titanium is the lightest. Pure titanium is a metal material with a high melting point and a particularly light material. It can be weighed by hand, and its weight is very light. Generally, the weight of an alloy frame is about 8.9g/cm3, and the specific gravity of a pure titanium frame is 4.5g/cm3. , it can be seen that the weight of the pure titanium frame is almost half the weight of the alloy frame.
The pure titanium frame is not allergic to the human body, and will not be magnetized in a large magnetic field, and pure titanium can dissolve those ions that have adverse effects on the body's biological current, and has good compatibility with human tissue and blood. , have beneficial physiological effects on the human body. Widely used by the medical community.
The major advantage of pure titanium material is lightweight. From the perspective of the production process of glasses, pure titanium is not easy to deform and durable due to its high strength, corrosion resistance, good flexibility and other characteristics. The pure titanium frame has a strong metallic texture, which is especially suitable for people who like business style.
In addition to the carbon fiber and pure titanium eyeglass frames mentioned above, there are also very light eyeglass frames such as tungsten carbon, tr90, and ultra-thin sheets, which are also worth a try.
