This On Demand CEU is a recorded presentation from a previously live webinar event. This course will explore high-performance silicone coatings as a healthy and sustainable alternative to other spandrel glass materials. It will also cover rigorous testing to prove longevity and application suitability and considerations when specifying silicone coatings on spandrel glass. Finally, the course examines advantages of using silicone coatings in design to prevent hazardous solvent, heavy metals, and high VOCs in the environment.
Silicone Coatings: A Risk Mitigation Strategy for Thermal Stress Breakage
This On Demand CEU is a recorded presentation from a previously live webinar event. This course will provide architects, specifiers, and façade consultants education about silicone-based spandrel glass coating technologies. Attendees will learn about the risks of thermal stress breakage due to ceramic frit’s weakening effects on heat-treated glass. Testing methodology and industry standards will also be addressed. Alternative coating solutions will be introduced as a strategy to reduce risk of thermally induced breakage in glass facades.
