The use of ultra-white glass and ordinary glass is very common, and the differences exist are different, so it is necessary to distinguish well in advance to facilitate the normal use in the future and avoid unnecessary trouble. So what are the differences between ultra-white glass and ordinary glass:


1, super flint glass than normal  flint glass clarity is much higher. Many fish tanks will use super flint glass. When super white glass is used as a fish tank, you can clearly see every stone, patterned fish and water plants in the tank, while ordinary glass can't do that.


2, the UV transmission rate of ordinary glass is lower. Generally speaking, ordinary glass is not UV resistant. If we do it next to ordinary glass, UV rays are likely to hit our skin and make us dark and UV. Super Flint glass is UV resistant, and many museums use super white glass.


3. Super flint glass is very complicated to produce and difficult to control production. Ordinary glass is very simple to manufacture, so the production of ordinary glass in the market is relatively large, and ordinary glass dominates in sales.

4、It is because the workmanship of super flint glass is very complex and the materials are widely used, so it is about 10 times more expensive than ordinary glass in terms of price. However, its cost is only 2-3 times that of ordinary glass, but its workmanship and production technology is very difficult, so it can increase a lot of production costs during this period.


5. Due to the special production, the stability aspect of super flint glass is much better than ordinary glass. The light transmission rate of ordinary glass is generally around 75%, float glass is around 86%, and the light transmission rate of super flint glass is above 91.5%, which is easily seen by the naked eye.
