How high can the transparency of acrylic glass panels be?

The transparency of acrylic glass panels can usually reach around 92%, and some high-quality acrylic glass panels have even higher transparency, approaching around 93% -95%. The following is a more detailed introduction:
Compared to ordinary glass
The transmittance of ordinary glass is generally around 80% -90%, and the transparency of acrylic glass panels is significantly better than that of ordinary glass. Under the same thickness conditions, acrylic glass panels have a stronger ability to transmit light, allowing more light to pass through. The scattering phenomenon when light passes through is also less, making the visual effect clearer and more transparent.
Factors affecting transparency
Raw material purity: If the purity of the raw material used to produce acrylic glass panels is not high enough and contains a lot of impurities, these impurities will absorb and scatter light when it passes through, resulting in a decrease in transparency. High purity acrylic raw materials can ensure less loss of light during propagation, thereby improving transparency.
Production process: For example, in the polymerization process, if the process parameters such as temperature, time, and stirring speed are not properly controlled, the internal structure of acrylic will be uneven, resulting in defects such as bubbles and cracks. These defects will seriously affect the transmission of light and reduce transparency. Adopting advanced production processes, such as bulk polymerization, and strictly controlling the parameters of each link, helps to produce highly transparent acrylic glass panels.
Surface treatment: If the surface of acrylic glass panels is scratched, stained, or improperly treated during post-processing, such as cutting or carving without proper polishing, it will make the surface rough and uneven, increase light scattering, and reduce transparency. After fine surface treatment, such as polishing, cleaning and other processes, the surface can be kept smooth and flat, which helps to maintain high transparency.
Performance in practical applications
Display field: In scenes such as cosmetics display cabinets and jewelry display racks in shopping malls that require high display effects, the high transparency of acrylic glass panels can effectively showcase the details and luster of the exhibits, allowing customers to see the full picture of the exhibits clearly, as if the exhibits were not blocked by glass, greatly enhancing the display effect.
Advertising signage: When used to create advertising lightboxes, signs, etc., its high transparency ensures that light can fully pass through the panel, making the advertising signage brighter and more eye-catching when illuminated at night. The clarity of text and patterns is high, which can better attract people's attention and play a good advertising and promotional role.
In the field of optics: In some applications such as protective covers and observation windows of optical instruments, the high transparency of acrylic glass panels can ensure the normal transmission and transmission of light, and will not reduce the performance and accuracy of optical instruments due to the influence of the panel itself on light, ensuring the normal use of instruments and the accuracy of measurement results.
Acrylic glass panels, with their high transparency, are widely used in many fields that require transparency. Under normal use and maintenance conditions, their transparency can remain stable for a long time and will not easily decrease like ordinary glass.
