• the fire prevention test was performed for the thickness of 7.7 mm under the processing conditions of Example 3 (surface compressive stress is 162 MPa) and the processing conditions of Comparative Example 1 (surface compressive stress is 198 MPa).
• the preferred surface compressive stress for other thicknesses is that the smaller the plate thickness found in connection with the present invention, the smaller the required surface compressive stress. It was determined based on the edge strength improvement obtained by polishing according to the present invention. Also, the pressure of compressed air required for each plate thickness was determined based on the required surface compressive stress.
