Ir Glass Sheet

There are two tables grouped by frequency range and compound class.

The physical properties of this product are the same as standard extruded sheet and thus the same fabrication techniques apply. Plexiglass is a commonly used name to describe acrylic that originates from the brand name plexiglas similar to the way that kleenex a brand name is often used generically to describe a facial tissue. We stock a complete selection of clear uv resistant plexiglas clear and colored plexiglass infra red transmitting uv filtering uv transmitting and plastic plexiglass mirror acrylic plastic sheets featuring plexiglas brand clear acrylic sheets.

Infrared transmitting irt sheet was specifically formulated for projects requiring ultraviolet uv and visible light blockage while allowing infrared ir transmission starting about 750nm. Physical properties such as low dn dt and low dispersion enable optical designers to engineer color correcting optical systems without thermal defocusing. The physical properties of infrared plastic are the same a traditional acrylic sheeting with the only difference being the light transmission. Selecting a glass material is important since different glass types have different characteristics.

The index of refraction ranges from approximately 1 45 2 for visible materials and 1 38 4 for ir materials. In many cases index of refraction and density share a positive correlation meaning ir materials can be heavier than visible materials. The ir spectrum table is a chart for use during infrared spectroscopy the table lists ir spectroscopy frequency ranges appearance of the vibration and absorptions for functional groups. Infrared acrylic plastic sheets although all plexiglass sheeting transmits infrared light only this specialty sheeting blocks visible light and only transmits infrared.

Infrared glasses irg offer excellent transmission in the shortwave ir swir midwave ir mwir and longwave lwir range. 4x8 4x10 4x12 6x10 8x10 in clear. However a higher index of refraction also implies diffraction limited performance can be achieved with fewer lens elements reducing overall. Lucitelux ir reflecting a new product ecoshade ir reflective acrylic sheet is a continuous cast acrylic sheet containing an innovative component distributed uniformly throughout the material.

Standard tinted colors also available in our samples section include the bronze acrylic and gray acrylic solar control shades. Multiple sheet sizes are available from stock. Edmund optics offers a wide variety of glass types which can be selected on the basis of the following characteristics. The most popular colors of plexiglass in solar control tints are 2412 a medium bronze color.
