 Low Iron Laminated Glass
Low-iron laminated glass is used for aquariums, display cases, some windows, and other applications where clarity is desired. Low-e-glass can be custom laminated. You can get low-iron acid etched glass, low-iron backpainted glass etc at an affordable cost. Where you need more clarity, low iron glass is a perfect choice.
Laminated Glass is produced when two or more glass lites are permanently bonded with one or more plastic interlayers (PVB) using heat and pressure. The glass and interlayers can be a variety of colors and thicknesses. Laminated glass is often called [safety glass" because it meets the requirements of various code organizations. Laminated glass can be broken, but the fragments tend to adhere to the plastic layer and remain largely intact, reducing the risk of injury. Laminated glass can be incorporated with heat-strengthened and Tempered Glass to further increase impact resistance.
Low iron laminated glass is a kind of laminated glass which the glass substrate is ultra clear glass, with high transmittance.
