Low-e glass

 

Low-e glass is that putting several layer of metal or other chemical staff on the glass. The coating allow the visible light in and keep infrared ray outside. so, compared with the normal glass, it have a more effective ability in transmission of visible light and heat insulation.

Low-e can be divided into two types as to its usage: solar control low-e glass and high light transfer glass.

Solar control glass:

1.  it has a effect on room lighting caused by the appropriate light transfer.

2.  it can keep the solar heat outside.

3.  it can reflect infrared ray and low coefficient of heat transfer.

Application:

It can be suit for subtropical areas or temperate latitudes. Although it limit the solar heat inside, it can block down more sun heat in summer.

It not only can decorate the buildings but also prevent indoor from inundant sunshine pouring.

More effective if it combined by hollow glass.

 

High light transfer low-e glass

1.  High sunshine transfer.

2.  High solar heat transfer.

3.  it can reflect infrared ray and low coefficient of heat transfer.

Applications:

In the winter, it can cut down the energy used in heat supplying because the heat gave out from human being, home appliances and heating installation can be reflect back by the glass and the solar heat can go through.

More qualified while it composed by hollow glass (the coating should be the third side)

 

Double silver Low-e glass

Apparently, there are double layers of silver in the coating and it is a kind of solar control low-e glass. As to the function, it focuses on preventing solar radiation and transfer pervious light in.

Compared with solar control ones, it is more competitive in:

1.  High light transfer and reasonable room lighting.

2.  Lower coefficient of heat transfer.

3.  More efficient on keep heat and cold outside in winter and summer.

4.  It can be used wherever and any climate.

 

 

Coating glass

 Coating glass can be there types: heat reflect glass, low-e glass( in somewhere they also called hard coating and soft coating glass) , the other one is called electrically conductive glass, we don’t discuss the last one.

 

Heat reflect glass ( hard coat Low-E glass) is manufactured by pouring a thin layer of molten tin onto a sheet of glass while the glass is still slightly molten. The tin actually becomes "welded" to the glass. This process makes it difficult or "hard" to scratch or remove the tin. Often this glass has a blueish tint to it.

Low-e glass (Soft coat Low-E glass), on the other hand, involves the application of silver, zinc or tin to glass in a vacuum. The glass enters a vacuum chamber filled with an inert gas which is electrically charged. The electricity combined with the vacuum allows molecules of metal to sputter onto the glass. The coating is fairly delicate or "soft."

Furthermore, if silver is used (and it often is) this coating can oxidize if exposed to normal air. For this reason, Low-E glass must be used in an insulated glass assembly. Sealing the soft coating in between two pieces of glass protects the soft coating from outside air and sources of abrasion. Also, the space between the two pieces of glass is often filled with argon gas. The argon gas inhibits oxidation of the metallic coating. It also acts as an additional insulator.

The two types of Low-E glass have different performance characteristics. The soft coat process has the ability to reflect more heat back to the source. It typically has a higher R value. R values are a measure of resistance to heat loss. The higher the R value of a material, the better its insulating qualities. Look at Table 1 for a comparison of R values and the different types
