Dichroic glass

Dichroic glass multi-layer coating placed on glass using a highly technical vacuum deposition process. Quartz crystal and metal oxides are vaporized with a gun electron beam in a vacuum chamber without air and water vapor then floats upward and attaches then condenses on the glass surface in the crystal structure. Our colors are up to 30 layers of these materials yet the thickness of the coating in total about 35 millionths of a millimeter. Coating, which is set up is like a jewel, and careful control of thickness, different colors are obtained. Thus, our coatings are created using exactly the same materials. Originally developed for the aerospace industry, dichroic glass is now available for community arts in the linings Sandberg, Inc. CBS Dichroic glass is specially designed for hotworked in any way, but it can also be used in raw form. The main characteristic of dichroic glass is that the transmitted color and a completely different reflective color. Moreover, these two colors change depending on the angle. The play of light with vibrant color, dichroic glass is an important tool to add interest in a task or project. With over 45 dichroic colors Coatings available to be placed on "any" of the substrate (eg glass), artists unfettered freedom of expression.
