Haze Meter

A Haze Meter measures the degree of haziness and transmittance in transparent and translucent materials. It provides crucial and critical insights in industries where a clear vision is paramount, ranging from optics like eyewear to packaging like plastic sheets, films, glass, LCD panel and touch screen etc.

These devices follow ASTM D1003/1044, ISO 13468/14782 standards and utilize advanced optical principles to quantify haze, typically expressed as a percentage, providing crucial data for product quality assessment. By analyzing the scattering of light within a sample, haze meters offer precise and reliable measurements, aiding industries in ensuring transparency, consistency, and performance in their materials.

3nh Haze Meter

3nh is a leading provider of haze meters, renowned for their diverse range of models capable of measuring various parameters related to the transparency of materials. These instruments are engineered with cutting-edge technology to meet the specific needs of different industries and applications. Some of the parameters are:

Transmittance

Transmittance refers to the ability of a material to allow light to pass through it without being absorbed or scattered. It is typically expressed as a percentage and represents the proportion of incident light that successfully traverses the material. In the context of haze meters, transmittance measurement involves quantifying the amount of light transmitted through a sample. This measurement is essential for assessing the transparency and clarity of materials such as plastics, films, and liquids.

Haze

Haze refers to the degree of light scattering within a transparent material, leading to a loss of clarity or visibility. It is caused by microscopic irregularities or impurities present in the material, which deflect and scatter light as it passes through. High haze values indicate reduced transparency and can adversely affect the visual appearance and functional properties of the material.

Haze meters quantify haze by measuring the amount of scattered light relative to the total transmitted light passing through the sample. This measurement is typically expressed as a percentage, with higher values indicating greater haziness.
