Tinted glass, solar control glass

Tinted glass is the glass with different degree of light transmission and reflection.

Tinted glass protects from sunlight and limits indoor ultraviolet radiation transmission defending furniture and interior items against discoloration.
«Siberian Glass Company» offers sheet tinted glass of its own production and tinted glass of Russian and foreign manufacture (China, Pilkington, Guardian, AGC, Saint-Gobain, «Saratov Glass Institute», OJSC).

Our company produces tinted glass by a magnetron sputtering technology and by gluing of decorative polymer films.

Tinting by a magnetron sputtering technology:

• tinting colour —light grey, mirror-like (Tone 3, Tone 4)
• glass thickness — 4mm
• maximum glass sizes for sputtering — 2 500 ×1 600mm

Tinting by gluing of decorative polymer films:

• more than 30 film colours in stock
• film delivery for tinting by request

General information

Tinted glass is the glass with selective optical and thermal properties: selective transmission and reflection of thermal and light energy. Tinted glass refers to the class of solar control glass. Solar control glass reflects part of light radiation, but at the same time it transmits maximum of daylight. Solar control glass provides comfort inside buildings under influence of high sun radiation.
Tinted glass is mostly applied to façade glazing of architectural buildings, to production of windows, doors and incoming groups. Tinted glass is used in glazing of all transport facility. Bulk-tinted glass — popular material used in furniture production.

Tinted glass is widely used in building and motor industry thanks to solar control features; in the interior it is valuable due to its decorative characteristics.

There are several technologies of tinted glass production:

• bulk dyeing method
• pyrolysis technology
• magnetron sputtering technology
• gluing of polymer films

Glass tinted by bulk dyeing

Glass is dyed at the moment of its melting by adding a colouring component to molten glass mass.

The advantages of the method — resistance to mechanical impacts, convenience while glass processing.

Glass tinted by metal application using a pyrolysis technology

During production process a thin metal layer is applied to one of glass sides. The metal layer combining a hot glass surface creates a chemically and mechanically durable compound.

The advantages of the method — high endurance and durability, an attractive mirror surface, an ability for heat energy reflection.

Glass tinted by a magnetron sputtering technology

At a vacuum chamber a thin layer of metal oxides is applied on clear polished glass. High adhesion between coating and glass is a distinguished property of magnetron sputtering technology.

The advantages of the method:

• high light and heat reflection capacities
• ability to produce glass with the required light reflection and light transmission qualities, depending on thickness of the sputtered metal layer (from several angstrem units to several micrometers)
• ability to put a layer on patterned glass
• relatively low cost in comparison with other technologies of tinted glass production

Glass tinted by gluing of polymer films

A colour polymer film is glued on clear polished glass.

The advantages of the method:

• wide variety of films in colour, thickness and width
• aesthetic outward appearance
• expensive equipment is not required for film gluing on glass
