What is the expansion coefficient of solar glass

Thermal expansion and the glass transition

Their glass temperatures cover about one decade, and their thermal expansion coefficients vary by approxi-mately 2.5 and 1.5 decades in the glass and liquid phase, respectively.

Colored glasses absorb radiation. The larger the photoelastic constant, C, the more birefringence is generated by a given stress. Conductivity in silicate glass is by charged ions.

Product Bulletin: Thermal Expansion Consideration for Solar

Solar Canopies, designed as stand-alone structures typically do not require expansion joint since they can freely expand and contract on their own (not fixed between two points)
