SYSTEMS FOR LIGHT DIFFUSION THROUGH TRANSPARENT MATERIALS: PERFORMANCE INDEXES RELATED TO THE CONTAINMENT OF LUMINANCE AND TO THE REMOVAL OF THE UV COMPONENT
This article relates the results of some research, the first phase of which has been presented in a CIE Convention in 2002. The subject of the research is the study of the materials usually employed for light diffusion, in particular the commercial and exhibition applications. In both cases, the role these materials have in the removal of the most damaging component of light, that is the power issued in UV fields, is pivotal. Altogether, the research involved different types of glass, micro-drilled metal plates, plastic materials and film
