Low iron, super tints, reflective, transparent or standard mirrors, Low E glass
and interlayer colors are just some of the choices available for inclusion within
most glass and glass-clad polycarbonate laminates. Frost-Lite®,
a translucent white product with smooth surfaces for easy cleaning, is opaque
from a 4" distance and transmits 63% of all light. It is not harmful to most
plants. Fade-Safe®, a clear laminate,
prevents fading of fabrics and papers; filters 99.95% of UV rays at a wavelength
of 380 nanometers (nm) or less. Solutia's Vanceva Color
and Design System (brochures available) provides over 650 transparent
and translucent color options which may require low iron glass to maintain color
trueness over thick to thin laminates. To ensure aesthetic concerns are achieved,
mock-ups are highly recommended. The surface number is required for coated glass.
Selected raw materials determine maximum sizes.
