Ground Glass Diffusers are comprised of high tolerance, quality ground glass making them ideal for a variety of industrial applications. The float glass substrate has excellent visible transmission and is ideal for general diffusing applications. A 120-grit, 220-grit or 600-grit (as noted) sandblast is used to create a diffuse surface on the glass. Ground Glass Diffusers have even diffusion across the entire surface from undergoing two orthogonal passes during this sandblast process. The scattering is a compromise of low scatter loss and medium diffusion. Typical applications include use in screens, illuminator diffusion, and targets.
