The concept of tempering is widely used in our language.
Climate without extreme heat or cold, pleasant average temperature
One of the main uses of it is linked to weather And by case is that we use it when we want to indicate that in a place it is neither extreme cold nor heat, but that the temperatures are pleasant.
Normal temperatures in a temperate climate are 15 degrees Celsius, meanwhile, rainfall ranges between 500 and 1,000 mm. During the year.
In the regions where the climate of this type occurs, the winters are not harsh and the summers do not explode with heat. In both seasons the temperatures are kept in a balanced average that makes them not extreme as we have already pointed out.
Treatment and technique applied to steel and glass to make them more resistant
On the other hand, the word is used to refer to that treatment special that is made on iron alloys with the mission of increasing their hardness, and also the technique it is applied to glass to make this material harder as well.
The main characteristic of materials that have been tempered is that they do not shine, however, their solidity and endurance stands out greatly.
In glasses it is extremely common to carry out the tempering procedure because it precisely gives them rigidity and makes them resistant when they are part of a structure. In the field of building Of buildings and houses it is recurrent that glass that has been subjected to this process is applied to the openings. And in the automotive field, tempered glass has also begun to be included due to the solidity they provide to the vehicle.
The advantage is that when a tempered glass breaks, it will break into many small pieces and this reduces its danger.
