Anti-reflective glass

PPG Industries, Pittsburgh, has introduced Solarphire AR (anti-reflective) glass, a new product engineered to maximize solar energy transmission to solar-collecting photovoltaic cells.

Solarphire AR is formulated with a proprietary anti-reflective coating that facilitates the efficient conversion of solar light into energy. In 3.2-millimeter thicknesses, the glass yields a solar-weighted transmittance of more than 93 percent.
