Reflection Haze and Transmission Haze: Choose the Right Optical Question
Reflection haze concerns the reflected image; transmission haze concerns light passing through a material. They address different appearance questions.
Updated · NANOLAB Knowledge
Practical approach
Specify whether the application is opaque paint, transparent glass or another construction, then select the relevant method.
A coating on glass may need assessment through the pane as well as in reflection.
Decision limits
Do not use a reflection-haze result alone to certify the optical clarity of a transparent assembly.

Changing Reflection Angles to Inspect a Coated Panel
Use different viewing and lighting angles to distinguish reflections, residue and visible coating defects without repeatedly wiping a finished panel.
pH Test Strips vs a Meter: Choose Enough Resolution for the Decision
Choose between pH strips and a meter according to the required decision, sample limitations and measurement resolution.
Coating Optical Tests: Separate Transmission from Image Sharpness
The amount of transmitted light and the sharpness of an image viewed through a material are different properties.
