With the UV/VIS/NIR Spectrometer, transmission and reflection measurements can be carried out quickly and with high accuracy in a spectral range from 280 to 780 nm (UV and visible range). By measuring the light transmission, the quality of an adhesive bond or the transparency of a laminate can be determined and described, and conclusions can be drawn about the resistance of the materials to external influences. In this case, optical changes can be investigated after artificial and natural aging of composite glass, glued glass components and photovoltaic elements.
