1. Optical properties.
PRODUCT/ SPECIFICATIONS | PMMA | PC | SCC – PC sun control clear |
Light transmission | 92% clear 81% opal |
86% clear 50% white |
80% clear |
Energy transmission “G” | 86% clear 87% opal |
82% clear 62% white |
63% clear |
Shading coefficient: SC = G / 0,87
Light transmissions for combinations of double or triple skins are derived from the values above.
Example: Triple skin PC clear + PMMA clear + PMMA opal:
L.T. = 86% x 92% x 81% = 64%.
2. Thermal properties – Thermal conductivity (U σε W/m2.K).
