As far as the design and\nappearance are concerned, these glasses have a transparent, fire-finished,\nglossy surface that appears smooth and plane but has a characteristic waviness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>The standard has\nclassified sheet glass into four qualities as shown below:<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><em>AA Quality or Special Selected Quality (SSQ)<\/em><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>These glasses are of the\nhighest possible quality and are used for the production of projection slides,\nphotographic plates, and high-quality mirrors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><em>A Quality or Selected Quality (SQ)<\/em><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This category of glasses\nis essentially used for glazing or mirror production. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><em>B Quality or Ordinary Quality (OQ)<\/em><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>B-quality glasses are\nwidely used for glazing and framing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><em>C Qualify or Greenhouse Quality (GQ)<\/em><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>These glasses are commonly used for greenhouse glazing, the production of frosted glass, flooring strips, etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Sheet glass should be transparent, flat, and without any visible defects.
