SCHOTT B270 SUPERWITE ®
B 270 Superwite® is a clear, high transmission crown glass produced by melting high purity raw materials. B 270 Superwite® is marked by a high transmission in the range of the visible radiation and in the UV and IR ranges. Colour neutrality and outstanding transmission properties are two features of B270 Superwite® that have opened up a wide range of possible applications. Wherever light has to be transferred without undergoing any adverse change, clearly and without obstruction, B270 Superwite® is an important element in solving a problem.
