Materials | Soda Lime | PPG Starfire Soda Lime Glass

Glass Type: Soda lime

Description

STARPHIRE Ultra-ClearTM glass is an ultra-clear soda lime float glass product. Its high visible light transmittance (>91 % at 6 mm) and its brilliant azure edge are two characteristics unique to STARPHIRE Ultra-ClearTM glass. This glass is a low iron composition with mechanical and physical properties similar to ordinary clear soda lime float glass.
