Accuflect IR Infrared Reflectors
Description
Accuflect® IR is a highly diffuse and low loss reflector of near infrared and mid infraredradiation. The diffuse reflecting Accuflect® IR offers alternatives to the metallic specular reflectors and their shortcomings often found in infrared heating applications.

Features
Diffuse reflectance creates a uniformly illuminated area
Accuflect® IR is a refractory material capable of long term use at 1200°C-- well above the use temperature of metal reflectors
The refractoriness eliminates the need to actively cool the reflector surfaces
Radiosity from the warm reflector surfaces improves heating efficiency and has a recuperator effect on the high temperature emitters
Accuflect® IR has optimal reflectance in the .76 micron to 2 micron NIR wavelengths characteristic of high energy and high watt density emitters operating above 1000°C
Applications
Accuflect® IR is an electrical insulator.

Frequently Asked Questions
Accuflect IR is a highly diffuse and low loss reflector of near infrared and mid infrared radiation.
The features of Accuflect IR include diffuse reflectance that creates a uniformly illuminated area, refractory material capable of long term use at 1200°C, optimal reflectance in the .76 micron to 2 micron NIR wavelengths, and radiosity from the warm reflector surfaces that improves heating efficiency.
Accuflect IR can be applied as flat panels to act as a planar source or it can be shaped to provide a more concentrated area of illumination. It is also an electrical insulator.
Accuflect IR has a fine particle size and its microstructure results in a short mean free path length for the infrared photons refracting and reflecting within the material so sections as thin as 3 mm are fully effective reflectors.
The excellent low loss, diffuse reflectance of Accuflect IR is shown in the diffuse reflectance and specular reflectance curves. Total reflectance can be obtained by summing the diffuse and specular components at any wavelength of interest.
