What is ultra-white glass?
Ultra-clear glass is an ultra-transparent low-iron glass,also known as low-iron glass and high-transparent glass.It is a high-quality,multi-functional new high-grade glass variety with a light transmittance of over 91.5%.It has the characteristics of crystal clear, high-grade and elegant,and is known as the“crystal prince”of the glass family.
Ultra-clear glass combines all the processing properties of high-quality float glass with superior physical,mechanical and optical properties, and can be processed in the same way as other high-quality float glass.Unparalleled superior quality and product performance give ultra-white glass a broad application space and bright market prospects.
Ultra-white glass has the following four unique advantages
1. The glass has a low self-explosion rate
Since the ultra-white glass raw material generally contains less impurities such as NiS, the fine control in the melting process of the raw material makes the ultra-white glass have a more uniform composition than the ordinary glass, and the internal impurities are less, thereby greatly reducing the possibility of tempering. The chance of self-destruction.
2. Color consistency
Since the iron content in the raw material is only 1/10 or less of the ordinary glass, the ultra-white glass absorbs less to the green wavelength in the visible light than the ordinary glass, ensuring the consistency of the color of the glass.
Ultra-clear glass absorbs less in the red-violet band of visible light than ordinary glass
3. High visible light transmittance and good permeability
6mm thick glass with a visible light transmittance of more than 91%, with crystal clear crystal quality, make the display more clear, and highlight the original appearance of the exhibit.
Ultraviolet light should be removed Generally, ultra-white glass does not have this feature, and the ultraviolet transmittance is higher than that of ordinary glass.
4. Large market, high technical content, strong profitability
Ultra-clear glass has relatively high technology content, and it is difficult to control production. It has strong profitability relative to ordinary glass. The higher quality determines its high price. The price of ultra-white glass is 1~2 times that of ordinary glass. The cost is not much higher than that of ordinary glass, but the technical barrier is relatively high and has a high added value.
