Abstract
The present invention provides a green colored, infrared and ultraviolet absorbing glass composition having a luminous transmittance of up to 60 percent. The glass composition uses a standard soda-lime-silica glass base composition and additionally iron, cobalt, chromium, and titanium, as infrared and ultraviolet radiation absorbing materials and colorants. The glass of the present invention has a color characterized by a dominant wavelength in the range of about 480 to 510 nanometers, preferably about 490 to 525 nanometers, with an excitation purity of no higher than about 20%, preferably about 5 to 15%. In one embodiment of the invention, the glass composition of a green colored, infrared and ultraviolet radiation absorbing soda-lime-silica glass article includes a solar radiation absorbing and colorant portion consisting essentially of about 0.90 to 2.0 percent by weight total iron, about 0.17 to 0.52 percent by weight FeO, about 40 to 150 PPM CoO, about 250 to 800 PPM Cr.sub.2 O.sub.3, and about 0.1 to 1 percent by weight TiO.sub.2.
