Reflective glass, (also named solar control coating glass, or heating reflective coating glass), is a kind of coated glass that has a specific thin film deposited by the online CVD (chemical vapor deposition) method. It can change the optical performance of the floating glass and generate the required reflective color.
The reflective glass allows sunlight to pass through a window or facade while radiating and reflecting most of the sun's heat. Compared to using ordinary glass, the interior space remains bright and cool. The thicker the glass, the less light comes through the window. Reflective glass reduces solar heat gain and provides high levels of natural light for a comfortable and pleasant living and working environment.
Characteristics of reflective glass include:
Appearance: Reflective glass gives a building a mirror-like appearance. The coatings are available in silver, copper, gold and earth tone. They can be combined with tinted glass to give a building a beautiful appearance.
Visibility: Reflective glass permits you to see through the glass on one side, but not the other.
Energy savings: Because it reflects and absorbs the sun's rays, reflective glass reduces the amount of solar radiation that enters the building. This can save money in heating and air-conditioning costs.
Comfort: Reflective glass reduces variations in the interior temperature of a building.
