Pilkington Microwhite™


Pilkington Microwhite™ is an extremely-thin extra clear float glass made to exacting standards, suitable for a variety of applications.

Pilkington Microwhite™ is a high-grade float glass made to precise standards. Its excellent plane and low tolerances of thickness make it ideal for a wide range of uses, primarily microscope slides but also cosmetic mirrors, chromatographic plates, photomasks, automotive and technical glass, dependent on its thickness.

Features & Benefits

  • High-grade thin float glass with very low thickness tolerances.
  • Flat and uniform products.
  • Excellent optical transmission.
  • Neutral edge colour.
  • Superior light and energy transmission.
  • Free of fluorescent reflections.
  • Resistant to chemicals.
  • Extended shelf life.
  • Improved wetability through a silane coating (optional).
  • Pre-cut to customer specifications.

 

Applications


Pilkington Microwhite™ has traditionally been used for the production of microscope slides, cosmetic mirrors, chromatographic plates, LCD photo masks, automotive and technical glass, PC display screens and tablet PCs.

0.95-1.05 mm (microscope slides), 1.0-1.2 mm (microscope slides,cosmetic mirrors), 1.2-1.4 mm (chromatographic plates, cosmetic mirrors, technical glass) and 1.5-1.7 mm (photomasks, automotive, technical glass).

Spectrum Calculation Program

Pilkington Spectrum is een Windows-gebaseerd rekenprogramma voor glasprestaties waarmee u snel en efficiënt de belangrijkste eigenschappen van enkel glas en isolatieglas kunt berekenen. Het programma is ook beschikbaar als app voor mobiele apparaten.

Met Pilkington Spectrum kunt u onder andere de volgende gegevens bepalen:

  • Licht- en zonne-eigenschappen zoals transmissie, reflectie, absorptie en de g-waarde
  • Ug-waarde in het midden van de ruit
  • Geluidsisolatiewaarden
  • UV-transmissie en kleurweergave-index (Ra)
  • Overige eigenschappen, zoals: slingerzak-impactweerstand, brandwerendheid, weerstand tegen handmatige aanvallen (inbraakwerendheid) en andere prestatie-eigenschappen van glasconstructies.
