Its color flows cloudy; its quality is crystal clear and radiant.

2, glass, is a non-crystalline inorganic non-metallic materials, generally with a variety of inorganic minerals (such as quartz sand, borax, boric acid, barite, barium carbonate, limestone, feldspar, soda ash, etc.) as the main raw material, and in addition to adding a small amount of auxiliary raw materials made.
