Total Solar Reflectance is the ratio of total solar energy, which is reflected outwardly by the object to the amount of total solar energy falling on the object. Value is usually expressed as a percent and the higher the number the better.

Solar Absorptance is ratio of the amount of total solar energy absorbed by the object to the amount of total solar energy falling on the object. Solar absorption is that portion of total solar energy neither transmitted nor reflected. Since solar transmittance and solar reflectance are measured directly, the following equation should be used in calculating solar absorption. Solar absorption =1.00 – (solar transmittance) – (solar reflectance). Generally the lower the number the better and is a critical determinant in the potential for thermal stress.
