What is AR coating (anti-reflective coating) and what is it used for?

AR coating (Anti Reflection) is also called anti-reflective film, and is a coating that suppresses light reflection on the substrate surface and increases transmittance. It is abbreviated as AR.

AR (Anti-Reflection) coating is a processing technology that applies a thin film of material with a different refractive index to the glass surface to change the light transmission characteristics and suppress light reflection. It is usually manufactured using two processing methods: dry and wet.

By using AR coating, reflections can be prevented and the reflectance can be reduced to around 0.5% to 2%, even when the angle of incidence is 0 degrees.

Usage :

AR coating is usually applied to materials such as glass, PMMA (acrylic resin), PC (polycarbonate resin), and PET (polyethylene terephthalate), and is used in glass plates, liquid crystal panels, optical lenses, astronomical observation, etc. Among everyday items that are AR coated are eyeglass lenses and computer displays.

AR (Anti-Reflection) coating is a processing technology that applies a thin film to the glass surface that changes the light transmittance, reducing the reflectivity to around 0.5% to 2%, improving the clarity of smartphone screens.

AR Glass Film

·merit

Prevents light reflection, improves transmittance, and makes the screen easier to see

Light is reflected at the interface between the material and the air. Glass allows light to pass through, but when light passes through glass, about 4% is reflected from the front and back, totaling about 8%. This causes reflections and glare.

Glass films with AR coating reduce light reflection and improve transmittance, which helps to reduce glare and glare. They also minimize light reflection, allowing you to maintain the clarity and visibility of your screen.

Refractive index

Specifically, how much should it be reduced?

Quotes: geomatec, eenah

Regular protective glass film has a transmittance of about 92%, with 8% of light reflected . Glass film with AR coating has a transmittance of about 95.5%-99%, while glass film with AR coating on one side reflects about 4.5% and glass film with AR coating on both sides reflects about 1% .

In other words, AR-coated glass film can reduce light reflection by up to 80% .

We recommend NIMASO AR anti-reflective glass film.
