Thermally processed material is usually totally amorphous, [7] and as a result is highly transparent to visible light, with better light transmission than many kinds of glass. Polycarbonate has a glass transition temperature of about 147 °C (297 °F), [8] so it softens gradually above this point and flows above about 155 °C (311 °F). [9]
Glass-filled polymer (or glass-filled plastic), is a mouldable composite material. It comprises short glass fibers in a matrix of a polymer material. It is used to manufacture a wide range of structural components by injection or compression moulding. [1] It is an ideal glass alternative that offers flexibility in the part, chemical resistance ...
V-Ray rendering of a kitchen using SketchUp Folded paper: SketchUp drawing rendered using V-Ray, demonstrating shading and global illumination Render created using V-Ray for Rhinoceros 3D, demonstrating the advanced effects V-Ray is capable of, such as reflection, depth of field, and the shape of the aperture (in this case, a hexagon)
Although single layer polycarbonate sheeting is more flexible than polycarbonate in twinwall configuration, it still retains significant advantages over alternative materials, including glass. A typical 6mm sheet has a density of 0.72 g/cm^2 [ 6 ] and a thermal insulation R value of 0.3 m^2°C/W, while allowing 80% of visible light pass through ...
The following is an example of the scene description language used by POV-Ray to describe a scene to render. It demonstrates the use of a background colour, camera, lights, a simple box shape having a surface normal and finish, and the transforming effects of rotation. POV-Ray image output based on the script
Expanded polystyrene, used for building insulation, packaging, and cups, is invented by Dow Chemical. [1] 1957: The Italian firm Montecatini begins large-scale commercial production of isotactic polypropylene. 1960s: High-density polyethylene bottles are introduced; they will replace glass bottles in most applications. [11] 1965
Ordinary A-glass ("A" for "alkali-lime") or soda lime glass, crushed and ready to be remelted, as so-called cullet glass, was the first type of glass used for fiberglass. E-glass ("E" because of initial Electrical application), is alkali-free and was the first glass formulation used for continuous filament formation.
For other materials, one generally has to use importance sampling, i.e. probabilistically select a new ray according to the BRDF's distribution. For instance, a perfectly specular (mirror) material would not work with the method above, as the probability of the new ray being the correct reflected ray – which is the only ray through which any ...
