Nano-Based Glass of Airplane's Cockpit Produced in Iran
The glass produced by an Iranian knowledge-based company, supported by the Nano and Micro Technologies Development Headquarters of the Iranian Vice-Presidency for Science, Technology and Knowledge-Based Economy, has gone through all tests and enjoys the desirable resistance.
Also, the amount of visible light transmission and the amount of light scattering of the product are acceptable and the performance of the thermistors used in the glass has also been assessed as suitable.
The glass has been strengthened with a nanometer coating and prevents creation of a vapor layer to improve the safety of traveling by plane.
Earlier this year, researchers at an Iranian knowledge-based company had also used nanocoatings to improve vision of the pilots.
They enhanced the performance of airplane windshields by using nanotechnology that is able to reduce the amount of light passing or scattering.
To reduce the light scattering in the airplane windshield, nanolayers were used so that the lights do not disturb the vision of the pilots.
The product was supplied to the market with the support of the Nanotechnology Development Headquarters.
The light scattered from surface irregularities weakens the optical performance of various parts. This includes a decrease in optical efficiency, and a decrease in contrast and clarity of the image, creating a blurred image.
