Glass offers expanded low-e insulating performance alternatives for various climates

PITTSBURGH, Aug. 15, 2012 – PPG 

 

Industries (NYSE:PPG) has got SUNGATE(R) 600 glass, a multifunctional low-emissivity (low-e) glass which could improve the insulating performance of buildings in a range of 

 

climates and applications:

 

In moderate climates where heat gain is desired, Sungate 600 Stephanie blog  perform as being a traditional high-performing passive low-e glass. With this 

 

configuration, the coating is on the No. 3 surface of the 1-inch insulating glass unit (IGU), and that is the air-space side of the interior lite. The coating of Sungate 600 

 

glass reduces heat loss and a U-value of 0.33 while maintaining ample amounts of heat and visible radiation transmittance having a solar heat gain coefficient (SHGC) of 0.65 and 

 

visible light transmittance (VLT) of 71 percent.

For colder climate zones where even higher insulating values are desired, the coating of Sungate 600 glass may be placed for the 

 

No. 4 surface (facing the structure interior) of a 1-inch IGU using a solar-control low-e glass such as SOLARBAN(R) 60 glass on the No. 2 surface (the air-space side of the 

 

exterior lite) and a 1/2-inch air space. This configuration yields a 20 percent net grow in U-value with the necessity for triple-glazing.

When combined with a tinted or 

 

reflective glass from the OCEANS OF COLOR(R) or Earth and Sky glass collections by PPG, or with any SOLARCOOL(R) or VISTACOOL(R) glass, Sungate 600 glass can improve U-values by 

 

around 30 % if your coating lies on the No. 3 surface of the 1-inch IGU. This mixture improves both SHGC and U-value performance in a wide selection of aesthetics.

Sungate 600 

 

glass comes with a pyrolitic coating developed to offer the smoothness and durability needed when used on the absolutely no. 4 surface of your double-pane IGU. Since the coating 

 

is chemically bonded to glass while molten, Sungate 600 glass features a durable hard coat. The resulting star-crystalline structure also helps to make the surface as much as 25 

 

percent smoother compared to coatings on traditional pyrolytic coated
