PPG introduces SOLARPHIRE AR new glass for the solar market
PPG Industries's Solarphire AR (anti-reflective) glass is engineered to maximize solar energy transmission to solar-collecting photovoltaic cells.
Solarphire AR glass is formulated with a proprietary anti-reflective coating that facilitates the efficient conversion of solar light into energy. In 3.2-millimeter thicknesses, Solarphire AR glass yields a solar-weighted transmittance of more than 93 percent, making it one of the industry’s most transmissive glass products.
Solarphire AR glass continues PPG’s history of innovation in the development of stacked, thin-film coatings for glass. In 1983, PPG commercialized the world’s first coated low-emissivity (low-e) glass.
For more information about Solarphire AR glass or to request a sample, visit www.ppgsolarphire.com or call 888-PPG-SUN1 (774-7861).
