鍍膜玻璃是在玻璃表面涂鍍一層或多層金屬、合金或金屬化合物薄膜，以改變玻璃的光學性能，滿足某種特定要求。鍍膜玻璃可分為以下類：熱反射玻璃、低輻射玻璃（Low-E）、導電膜玻璃等。熱反射玻璃一般是在玻璃表面鍍一層或多層諸如鉻、鈦或不銹鋼等金屬或其化合物組成的薄膜，也稱為陽光控制玻璃；低輻射玻璃是在玻璃表面鍍由多層銀、銅或錫等金屬或其化合物組成的薄膜系，具有良好的隔熱性能；導電膜玻璃是在玻璃表面涂敷氧化銦錫等導電薄膜。

Plated glass is made of glass coated or plated with one layer or multi-layers of metal, alloy or metallic compound film,so as to change the optical property of glass, and to meet special requirement.Coated glass can be divided into following types: Heat reflective glass,low emission glass (Low-E),conductive film glass etc.Heat-reflecting glass is made usually of glass plated with one layer or multilayers of metal or other compound films, such as:chromium,titanium or stainless steel etc.It is also called as sunlight control glass.Low emission glass is made of glass plated with multilayers of metal or compound films,such as:silver,copper or tin etc.,having good heat-insulating property.Conductive film glass is made of glass coated with tin indium oxide and other conductive films
