Tinted glass is clear glass with a pigment or color added. This produces color throughout the piece, which will not chip or peel. Also clear or opal glass with a thin film of colored glass or plastic coating.
GLASS WHICH HAS HAD ITS GLASS CHEMISTRY ALTERED BY ADDING A METALLIC OXIDE TO THE GLASS COMPOUND. IRON OXIDES PRODUCE GREEN TINTS; SELENIUM OXIDES PRODUCE BRONZE TINTS AND COBALT OXIDE ADDITIVES WILL PRODUCE A BLUE TINT.
Tinted glass windows are those which are coated with a darker color to reduce sun glare and solar heat gain. Does not insulate particularly well. Tinted glass windows are available in several colors and tints.
Glass to which a small amount of color has been added consistently throughout the glass. Batch tinting reduces glare and absorbs heat.
A mineral admixture is incorporated in the glass, resulting an a degree of tinting. Any tinting reduces both visual and radiant transmittance.
Glass with colorants added to the basic glass batch that give the glass color as well as light and heat-reducing capabilities. The color extends throughout the thickness of the glass.
Glass colored by incorporation of a mineral admixture. Any tinting reduces both visual and radiant transmittance.
glass that has a color running through it.
Transparent glass with a consistent color throughout.
Glare and heat reducing glass which is intended for applications where glare and solar heat gain reduction is desirable. Tinted glass is also used where color can enhance design; standard tints are bronze, gray, and green.
Glass made with a green, gray or bronze tint, so as to reduce light transmittance.
Glass that had a color (any color) pigment added during manufacture rather than being applied after the glass had cooled from its molten state.
Glass that has been treated to rce transmitted glare.
Color has been added to "tint" the glass - usually green or blue, but also gray or bronze (brown), as opposed to clear which has no color added.
