The securing of glass into prepared openings It also refers to the collective elements of a building comprising glass, frame and fixings
The insertion of glass into sashes and doors Glazing also refers to the lowest quality of plate glass The purpose of glazing is to retain the glass adequately under the design load, provide effective weathering sealing, prevent loads or pressure points on the glass resulting from building movement, prevent glass-to-metal contact, and minimize glass breakage from mechanical or thermal stress
Glass in a window or door; the act or process of fitting with glass Glazing stop The part of the sash or door panel which holds the glass in place Grille A term referring to windowpane dividers or muntins When between two panes of glass, they will last longer and allow for ease of cleaning
(Top Coating): The application of protective transparent resins to the leather The glazed leather features a high gloss or matte finish
(impl) (sol) A transparent sheet that admits sunlight to a SOLAR COLLECTOR or solar building and then inhibits the escape of heat Often used interchangeably with window or glass, the term actually refers specifically just to the clear material which admits sunlight, and so can also be ACETATE, acrylic, and fiber-reinforced plastics Double and triple glazing refer to two or three panes F - vitrification S - vidriado
A covering of transparent or translucent material (typically glass or plastic) used for admitting light
Glazing is the construction term used for sheets of glass that fill in windows The unique designs of the glass barrel vault skylight and the glass end walls at the Kimmel Center have rarely been attempted before in the glass industry

A form of glazing for windows or doors consisting of two panes of glass enclosing an air space between them and used for thermal insulation or sound insulation, or both
In general, two thicknesses of glass separated by an air space within an opening to improve insulation against heat transfer and/or sound transmission In factory-made double glazing units, the air between the glass sheets is thoroughly dried and the space is sealed airtight, eliminating possible condensation and providing superior insulating properties
In general, any use of two thicknesses of glass, separated by an air space, within an opening, to improve insulation against heat transfer and/or sound transmission In factory-made double glazing units the air between the glass sheets is thoroughly dried and the space is sealed airtight, eliminating possible condensation and providing superior insulating properties
In general, any use of two lights of glass, separated by an air space, within an opening, to improve insulation against heat transfer and/or sound transmission In insulating glass units the air between the glass sheets is thoroughly dried and the space is sealed, eliminating possible condensation and providing superior insulating properties
- a hard, impervious coating fired on to ceramic materials, it can be clear or colored, transparent or opaque, matte or glossy; clay glazes are like slips and were used on very early ceramics, other glazes are all forms of glass made from powdered glass, feldspar, borax, salts, or metal oxides; lead glaze is found on Hafner ware and folk pottery; leopard glaze is a strong brown-speckled saltglaze found especially on Frechen wares; saltglazes are produced by pouring large quantities of salt into the furnace at its peak firing temperature - the sodium chloride reacts with water (hydrogen oxide) to produce a glassy coating (sodium oxide) and hydrochloric acid vapors; tin glaze, as commonly used on faience, is made from tin oxide
To incrust, cover, or overlay with a thin surface, consisting of, or resembling, glass; as, to glaze earthenware; hence, to render smooth, glasslike, or glossy; as, to glaze paper, gunpowder, and the like
A translucent layer of paint through which other layers of paint can be seen This usually increases the sense of depth and luminosity of a painting, but if a painting is dirty or has an old varnish over it, then the effect of the glaze is neutralized
A coating of glass that gives pottery a smooth a brilliant surface After the glaze is applied (usually applied by dipping, pouring or spraying) the pot is fired again in order to fuse the glaze and vitrify the clay body of the piece
A glaze is a thin layer of beaten egg, milk, or other liquid that you spread onto food in order to make the surface shine and look attractive. Brush the glaze over the top and sides of the hot cake
In oil painting a transparent layer of paint laid over a dried painted canvas In ceramics a thin coating of clay fused to the piece by firing in a kiln

Glaze is the thin glass coating on porcelain insulators Glaze not only provides the great variety of colors in porcelain, but also protects the insulator surface from dirt and water
a glossy finish on a fabric any of various thin shiny (savory or sweet) coatings applied to foods become glassy or take on a glass-like appearance; "Her eyes glaze over when she is bored"
