I generally make a .ztg table file but this is not possible with all the products.
Anyone have any insights?

 

Thanks!

Norland provides the equation for NOA 61, at the bottom of this page:

You can convert the Cauchy formula to Schott formula with a little bit of maths (first converting to um from nm, then squaring the formula to obtain n^2).

This gives an Abbe number around 42, perhaps you can also use that for the model glass for other Norland adhesives.
