Hi, so would using such materials to for example hinder bacterial growth in portable water containers and/or shower hoses be a good idea?
(I'm looking for ways to keep [currently mostly] water safe without unpleasant chemicals such as bleach).
I tried searching on googles about whether then the materials will degrade faster or will they else just let through the UV and be UV resistant at the same time..
I don't think that degradation would be that significant, unless it would leach/break down the materials into the water faster, would it?
Could you maybe name some such materials, preferably for contact with food and drinkable water?
Thank Youy
All drivers would look like reclining zombies floating by with their arms out.
Getting a transparent material to receive a shadow!
I have seen the same response pretty much everywhere but I can't get this to work!
>"Material: Blend Mode: Translucent Two-Sided: True Lighting Mode: Surface Translucency Volume Then for your mesh placed in the level select it. In it's Details Panel make sure that Volumetric Translucent Shadow is set to True." --- all the forums
I don't even know if this is the right approach, I have large images I need overlaid on the ground, I figured a translucent material on a plane made the most sense but this shadow thing is making me rethink that.

I put the arms and lens of this glasses on different render layers in Keyshot with the intent of masking the end of the left arm that disappears behind my stock photo's face without damaging the transparent lens in front of it. But as you can see Keyshot rendered the left arm later into the front layer and only separated the part of the left layer that isn't occluded. Is there any way to get Keyshot to do what I want?
(I've moved the layers a few pixels so you can see what I'm talking about

Ever since the DATransparent project shut down I've had no easy way of getting transparent images for fun edits I like to do, and I was wondering if anyone had some of the files that used to be in that folder. Would be much less of a hassle for me if anyone has them
Basic glass has sodium, pyrex has boron... Even if a glass type only passes narrow band in UV or near infrared, it could be useful in some use.

As the title says really - I can see lots of regular screen material online but what stuff is suitable for an acoustically transparent screen?
Could you recommend me software? Consider me a complete starter; I have only used Fusion360 which is not code based at all and some FEMM (scilab).. i also don't own any paid packages at the moment.
I want to simulate heating of a material due to illumination with a light beam. So I need to plug in; A light source; beam shape, focus point, energy, beam movement speed... A heated material; beer-lambert sbsorbtion, heat conduction...
Any hints? Or are such well defined tasks easier to outsource?

Lighting is probably important but I can't over light the scene cos then it just looks way too blown out?
Would appreciate any help!
I've been seeing this since beta 2 it'll happen randomly regardless of background colour and only a reboot will fix it.
I've already reported it, still weird however.
For clarification, the transparent bit is supposed to be the notification shade.

META is answering the need with NANOWEB®: The world’s highest-performance Indium-free transparent metal-mesh.
NANOWEB® is a transparent conductor made of an invisible metal mesh that can be fabricated onto any glass or plastic surface. It offers a superior alternative to Indium Tin Oxide (ITO), Silver Nanowire (AgNW), graphene and carbon nanotube among other ITO-alternative technologies.
It has a nanostructured thin metal layer that is a two-dimensional mesh of continuous wires. The design of the mesh geometry allows for a highly conductive and transparent layer. Due to its high conductivity, it is able to operate using very little power while remaining clear and transparent. Its grid of highly conductive lines allows more energy to pass through an open area surface versus unpatterned conductive materials.The metal mesh has been created from silver, aluminum, platinum, copper and nickel, but it can be done with almost any type of metal. The transparency depends only on geometrical design of the mesh and not the type of metal material. Sub-micron lines are designed to ensure there is no visibility to the human eye.
NANOWEB® has been developed using Rolling Mask Lithography (RML®). The RML process enables NANOWEB® to be produced for large-area products, devices, and films in roll-to-roll production.
I used Photoshop to do the whole alpha thing and get a transparent texture. But it has a weird white outline around it. I think it has to do with the quick select in Photoshop. Do any of you guys know of an alternative?
Does anyone have any advice or know any tutorials on how to make a truly transparent material (i.e. not refractive). Like how in unreal engine you can make something transparent without making it refractive? I've heard about chromas and I'm wondering if that might help, but I just want it for the material, not the entire object so I don't believe this will work.
