Solar and Thermal


UVEKOL® laminated glass has been tested for its solar and thermal performance.

U Values


Laminated glass units with a 0. 040" and 0.120" (1 mm and 3 mm) UVEKOL® S interlayer have been tested for Thermal Performance in accordance with AAMA 1503-98 and ASTM C236-91.

A summary of results can be found in the test reports below.

U Values:
–NFRC 100 (70º F / 0º F)

  • 1/8"/0.040" UVEKOL® S/1/8" AN laminate composition: 1.07 BTU/hr./ft2/ºF
    1/8"/ 0.120" UVEKOL® S/ 1/8" AN laminate composition: 0.98 BTU/hr.ft2/ºF
   
UV Transmittance

UVEKOL® laminated glass blocks 100% of UV-B (280-320 nm) and 60% of UV-A (320-400 nm).

Below 380 nm, a typical industry reference, UVEKOL® laminates have shown to block 95% of the UV radiation.
