Overview: Şişecam Tinted Float Glass offers a variety of color options for designers and customers to create aesthetically pleasing and stylish environments. It is particularly effective in exterior applications for limiting solar heat gain and controlling sunlight brightness, thereby reducing cooling costs.
Specifications: The glass is available in several colors including bronze, blue, grey, dark grey, and green, all in 8 mm thickness. It can be processed into laminated, toughened, heat-strengthened, enamelled, bent, coated, acid-etched, sandblasted glass, and mirrors. The glass's daylight and solar energy properties are measured according to EN 410, and U-value is calculated as per EN 673.
Performance Metrics: Key performance indicators include daylight transmittance, outdoor reflectance, solar factor, shading coefficient, and U-value. Lower solar factors and shading coefficients indicate better solar control, while lower U-values suggest better heat control.
Applications: Suitable for non-residential buildings with curtain walls, windows, spandrels, facade claddings, overhead glazings, and balustrades. It is also applicable for interior uses such as tabletops, shelves, doors, shower cabins, and partitions.
Recommendations: To avoid thermal breakage risks, it is recommended to use toughened or heat-strengthened glass. When laminating, all panes should be either toughened or heat-strengthened.
Technical Data: The document provides detailed tables with metrics for different glass thicknesses (4 mm, 6 mm, 8 mm) and configurations (single glazing, double glazing with cavities filled with dry air or argon). These include values for daylight transmittance, reflectance, absorption, solar factor, shading coefficient, and U-value.
