Technical FAQs 4

Can plastic & glass materials transmit solar radiation?

Spectral transmission of solar radiation by plastic and glass materials It is well known that excessive exposure to solar ultraviolet (UV) radiation can have serious adverse effects.

What is the transmittance of uncoated solar glass?

The transmittance of conventional uncoated solar glass at a vertical incidence of light is approximately 91%. The front reflects around 4%, around 4% on the back, and 1% absorption. In addition, there are double reflections within the glass, which is in the order of 0.2%.

Does dust affect the transmittance of soiled glass?

One approach is to consider the light-scattering effects of dust when measuring the transmittance of soiled glass samples and the differing light paths in glass samples and PV modules. The transmittance of conventional uncoated solar glass at a vertical incidence of light is approximately 91%.

Which material has the highest spectral transmittance of solar radiation?

This study analyse spectral transmission of solar radiation of glass and plastics. The 8 h transmittances are higher than at 12 h and are higher in winter than summer. Methacrylate and smoked glass have the highest transmittance in UV, VIS and NIR ranges. Polycarbonate has the lowest transmittance in UV, VIS and NIR ranges.
