  Ultra clear glass is a kind of ultra transparent low-iron glass, also known as low iron glass and high -transparency glass. It is a high-quality, multi-functional new high-grade glass variety, with a light transmittance of more than 91.5%, with crystal clear, high-grade and elegant characteristics, and is known as the "crystal prince" of the glass family.

 

  At the same time, ultra clear glass has all the processability of high-quality float glass, with superior physical, mechanical and optical properties, and can be processed in various ways like other high-quality float glass.

  Advantages of ultra-clear glass:

 

1.The self-explosion rate of glass is low

 

Because the raw materials of ultra-clear glass generally contain less impurities such as NiS, and the fine control in the melting process of raw materials, so that ultra-clear glass has a more uniform composition than ordinary glass, and its internal impurities are less, which greatly reduces the probability of self-explosion after tempering.

 

2.Color consistency

 

Since the iron content in the raw material is only 1/10 or even lower than that of ordinary glass, ultra-clear glass absorbs less green band in visible light than ordinary glass, which ensures the consistency of glass color.

 

3.High visible light transmittance

 

Good permeability greater than 91.5% visible light transmittance, with crystal clear crystal-like quality, making the exhibits clearer and more able to highlight the true original appearance of the exhibits.

 

4.Low ultraviolet transmittance

Compared with ordinary glass, ultra-clear glass has a lower absorption of ultraviolet wavelengths, which can effectively reduce the passage of ultraviolet rays and slow down the fading and aging of various exhibits in the display cabinet, especially for the protection of cultural relics.

 

5.High technical content, strong profitability

 

Ultra-clear glass has relatively high technology content, difficult production control, and strong profitability compared with ordinary glass. Higher quality determines its price, the current price of ultra-clear glass is 1~2 times that of ordinary glass, the cost is not much higher than ordinary glass, but the technical barriers are relatively high, with high added value.

 

How can you tell the difference between ultra-clear glass?

 

  The easiest way is to look at the glass cutting section: ordinary white glass has a darker green, blue or blue-green color, while ultra-clear glass has only a very light blue.
