Do you love
wearing eyeglasses? Well, if yes, then it is sure that you are a fashion geek
and must opt for the best one only. There are ample of designs and styles of
the best lenses for men and women available in the market, but to get a right
one among all, it is important to know how to determine glass frame quality.
The most suitable way to determine its quality is by touching it in your hand.
It provides a feel and let you know if they are stiff and solid. The frames
with hinges should move smoothly and have similar friction throughout the bend.
The quality
frames come with higher level of perfection as they are designed through
machines and therefore the parts fit together well. Now, you will find that
most of the glasses are made in China and therefore, there are chances of poor
quality of frames parts. So, it is a better idea that you must have some
knowledge in consideration of eyeglass frame materials. In this article, we
will discuss some frame materials used for eyeglasses. Although, it is made of
different composite formula and material, but mostly, it is a combination of
metal and plastic.
ZYL
Qube Frames |
This is a
short name for cellulose acetate material. The cellulose acetate material is
made of cottonseed fibres, wood flakes, plasticizers and stabilizers. As it has
ample of colours, designs, textures and patterns, it is most common kind of
frame material. It is possible that ZYL can lose its form. When temples are designed
through this material, then the material is cut into blocks. In case of granular
ZYL, it is liquefied and then injection moulded. Among other ZYL ranges,
block-cut ZYL is stronger and stable.
Monel
It contains
2/3rd nickel and 1/3rd copper. This is highly ductile
alloy that can be turned into variety of shapes and that too without losing
strength. It is used to stabilize frame bridges and endpieces. It is corrosion resistant and durable.
Sometimes, nickel in this frame material may cause allergy to those who are
allergic to metals. 3
Titanium
This is a
new material for eyeglass frames. The qualities of the material include
lightweight and it does no decay. It is the most expensive material used in
designing frames due to its qualities like strength, lightness and flexibility.
As it is difficult to colour this kind of frame, so it is used in just a few
range of eyeglass frames.
Stainless
steel
This
contains iron with a combination of nickel, manganese and chromium. This is
highly lustrous and with this, the optician can design thin, stunning and
sturdy eye glasses frame. The best feature is the frames will be corrosion
resistance. Well, it is not so easy to design eye lenses in steel and therefore
temples are designed springy.
Nylon
This is
unbreakable and therefore it is often used for safety applications and sports.
This will be available only in opaque colour. Other qualities include
flexibility and lightweight.
Besides
them, other materials include aluminium, flexon and hypo-allergenic. So, if you
really want a hot and sexy look and that too at affordable prices then place
your order and get them at your doorstep. Eye lens prices in India is quite nominal and most
