High-white glass is commonly known as "super-white glass" or "ultra-clear glass". The industry calls it "low iron glass". It is not lead glass. Leaded glass is mostly used in the field of radiation protection. For example, XRD perspective windows use lead. Glass.

In the glass manufacturing process, if the iron content is too high, the internal colour composition will increase, so that the light through the glass is easily absorbed, resulting in a decrease in light transmittance, which is what we call low transparency.
When you cut a piece of ordinary glass, does the cross-section appear blue-green? Similar to the piece of glass at the bottom of this picture, the top is the ultra-white glass mentioned here~

Therefore, ultra-white glass is to minimise the iron content in the glass composition (generally controlled within ≤0.011), increase the light transmittance to more than 92%, with no obvious defects, and look crystal clear from the outside. Surface feeling.
This visual effect is a big selling point in ordinary daily necessities, and it can also increase the aesthetics when it is used in construction; high light transmittance is its biggest advantage in special fields, such as photovoltaic, solar energy, and other industries that require high transparency~

Product Sharing-Photovoltaic Glass Crushing

Photovoltaic glass shards are leftovers from photovoltaic glass panels and are called scrap. It is a low-iron glass, which is generally used for PV glass manufacturers to buy back and regenerate, which can reduce manufacturers' production cost and increase production. Broken PV glass is easy to melt and can extend the service life of the furnace. It is the first choice for raw material purchase for PV glass factory.
