Thank you for your interest in the Characterization of Architectural and Safety Glass using UV/Vis/NIR and FT-IR Spectroscopy.
Description: Many important parameters of architectural and safety glass must be quickly and accurately measured, to ensure correct performance in use. Testing methods must be rapid, precise and non-destructive.
The use of UV/Vis/NIR Spectroscopy is well-established in glass analysis. The correct choice of instrumentation and sampling accessory is discussed for a range of different sample types, along with the experimental requirements for key measurements and testing protocols. For protection glass, parameters such as UV, Visible, Near-IR and luminous transmittance and relative visual attenuation are discussed, and for single, double and triple-glazed architectural glass, methods for the reflectance and transmittance properties of thin-film coatings are described. New legislation requires accurate measurement of the emissivity of coated, tempered architectural glass in order to determine the thermal insulation characteristics of the window, and we describe the new FT-IR accessories and testing methods which are now available.
