Finally, the glass is cut into stock sheets of various sizes for shipment to fabricators. Because of the historic evolution of these coating technologies, passive low-e coatings are sometimes associated with the pyrolytic process and solar control low-e coatings with MSVD, however, this is no longer entirely accurate. In addition, performance varies widely from product to product and manufacturer to manufacturer see table below , but performance data tables are readily available and several online tools can be used to compare all low-e coatings on the market.
In a standard double panel IG there are four potential surfaces to which coatings can be applied: Passive low-e coatings function best when on the third or fourth surface furthest away from the sun , while solar control low-e coatings function best when on the lite closest to the sun, typically the second surface.

Low-e coatings are applied to the various surfaces of insulating glass units. Whether a low-e coating is considered passive or solar control, they offer improvements in performance values. The following are used to measure the effectiveness of glass with low-e coatings:. When thinking of window designs: However, low-e coatings play an equally important role and significantly affect the overall performance of a window and the total heating, lighting, and cooling costs of a building. Tempered glass is four times stronger than regular glass; heat strengthened is just two times stronger.
Pure glass is incredibly strong — it only scratches or breaks because of imperfections that can occur during the manufacturing process. If you see condensation on the outside of your low-e glass windows, it means the coating is working properly. The word window comes from a Norse term translated "wind eye", for "eye on the weather. Insulated Glass Units are made with two or more lites of glass with a hermetically sealed space filled with dry air or insulating gas.

Insulated glass units or double glazed units are a significantly more energy efficient glazing system than single glazing. IGUs reduce the likelihood of interior condensation forming by providing a thermal barrier between the inside and the outside. The thermal barrier makes interior spaces more comfortable as it is easier to maintain a consistent indoor environment. Thermal or insulation improvements achieved with an IGU work day and night in both summer and winter conditions, reducing heat entry and heat loss. It has a light green tint, which can be seen when held against a white background.
Due to the chemistry involved in the float glass process, all the colors of the rainbow are not possible. For example, orange, red, yellow and violet colored glasses cannot be produced using standard float technology.

How much does glass weigh? Glass 6mm thick will weigh 2. They may still be considered as basic products, and size and tolerance constraints are similar to those for clear float glass.
Coating of glass
Surface coatings, either for solar control purposes or for reduced emissivity a property to improve thermal insulation , are called pyrolitic coatings because they are generally applied to the hot glass during its passage through the annealing lehr. They involve the thermal decomposition of gases, liquids or powders sprayed on to the glass to form a metal oxide layer which fuses to the surface.
On-line coatings have advantages of hardness and durability over off-line coatings and are suitable for bending and toughening.
They tend to be limited in variety of colour. The use of dielectric coatings, which produce interference effects, allows higher light transmission with increased selectivity; the range of colours is also increased.
Infrared emitters dry coatings on glass
The maximum sizes of coated glass are dependent on the various facilities, and manufacturers' literature should be consulted. It is not possible to toughen or bend most off-line coated glass; such work must be carried out before coating. It is possible to combine coatings in double glazed and laminated products. This deposit is usually protected by a layer of copper which in turn is protected by a paint backing.
