Answer: tempered glass

The characteristics listed in the options are the characteristics of an insulating glass, a type of glass with double or more panes used to reduce heat loss within a building.

Step-by-step explanation:

A tempered glass is also known as a toughened glass. It is a type of glass that is produced through controlled thermal or chemical treatment which helps to increase its quality in terms of toughness. A tempered glass is a safety glass and as a result of this, its surface is four times toughened than that of a normal glass.

Answer:

Tempered glass

Step-by-step explanation:

Tempered or toughened glass is a type of safety glass processed by controlled

thermal or chemical treatments to increase its strength compared with normal glass. Tempering puts the outer surfaces into compression and the interior into tension . Such stresses cause the glass, when broken, to crumble into small granular chunks instead of splintering into jagged shards as plate glass (a.k.a. annealed glass) does. The granular chunks are less likely to cause injury.
