Pilkington Solar-E™ and Pilkington Solar-E™ Plus


Pilkington Solar-E™ and Pilkington Solar-E™ Plus are a range of solar control clear or body-tinted coated glass with medium light transmittance, low light reflectance, and low emissivity.

The durable coating is applied pyrolytically during float glass manufacture to a variety of substrates, giving a range of colours in reflection – Pilkington Solar-E™ Clear & EverGreen, and Pilkington Solar-E™ Plus Blue-Green, Grey & Arctic Blue.

Pilkington Solar-E™ & Pilkington Solar-E™ Plus can be used in single glazing applications, provided that the coating faces the interior of the building.

Features & Benefits

  • Good solar control performance with low-emissivity properties, reducing the need for heating and cooling the building.
  • Medium light transmittance and low light reflectance for undistorted, natural views.
  • Additional thermal insulation performance when combined in an insulating glass unit with a low-emissivity glass.
  • Durable pyrolytic on-line coating is easy to handle and process, providing a low-cost solution with high visual impact.
  • Can be laminated, toughened, bent, and enamelled using standard techniques.
  • Can be used in monolithic form or incorporated in insulating glass units, and has an unlimited shelf-life.
  • No edge deletion required.
  • Available in the following thicknesses: Pilkington Solar-E™ Clear in 3, 4, 5, 6, 8 and 10 mm; EverGreen 6 and 8 mm; Pilkington Solar-E™ Plus in 6 mm only.

Applications


Pilkington Solar-E™ andPilkington Solar-E™ Plus products can be used in single glazing applications provided that the coating faces the interior of the building. They provide attractive solutions to various applications where good light transmittance with enhanced solar control performance is required.

Thanks to their low exterior light reflectance the products are widely used for modern glass façades where high reflectance is prohibited or undesirable. Where a safety glass is required,the products can be specified as toughened or laminated glass.

It is well-suited to both commercial facades and residential applications where high reflectance is prohibited or undesirable, a neutral aesthetic is preferred and energy efficiency in both summer and winter is required at a reasonable price.

Programa de Cálculo Spectrum

O Pilkington Spectrum é um modelo de desempenho de vidros baseado em Windows que permite calcular, de forma rápida e eficiente, as principais propriedades de unidades de vidro isolante (UVI), sem a necessidade de fabricá-las e realizar medições. O Pilkington Spectrum pode ser utilizado para fornecer as seguintes informações:

  • Propriedades ópticas e solares (transmitância, refletância, absortância, fator solar g, entre outras).
  • Valor Ug do vidro central.
  • Valores de isolamento acústico.
  • Transmitância ultravioleta (UV) e índice de reprodução de cor (Ra).
  • Outras propriedades (por exemplo, resistência ao impacto de corpo pendular, resistência ao fogo, resistência a ataques manuais, entre outras).
