Product overview PLEXIGLAS®


PLEXIGLAS® standard


moulding compounds Depending on the grade, the PLEXIGLAS®


standard moulding


compounds differ in their physical properties such as flow and heat deflection temperature under load. They can be processed by means of all conventional thermoplastic processing methods.


PLEXIGLAS® Heatresist


A higher heat deflection temperature is the distinguishing feature of these speciality PMMA moulding compounds.


PLEXIGLAS® Heatstop


(formerly CoolTouch) These heat-reflecting PMMA moulding compounds, solid and multi-skin sheets offer greater energy efficiency by cutting air conditioning costs. A multi-skin sheet variant filled with aerogel offers high heat insulation.


PLEXIGLAS® Hi-Gloss


A noble appearance and special deep-view effect are the characteristics of these high-gloss solid sheets, which are available in various colours and with up- to-the-minute décors. Speciality moulding compounds provide injection-moulded components with a high-gloss Class A surface and remarkable depth of colour.


LED*


The new dimension of light: speciality PMMA sheets and moulding compounds for efficient lighting applications combined with LEDs. Speciality products for edge lighting and backlighting offer maximum light transmission without disturbing hot spots, as well as attractive and playful colour effects.


PLEXIGLAS® Optical


PMMA moulding compounds and sheets with optical functionalities, high light guidance and distribution provide a uniformly bright and perfectly sharp picture, especially in display applications and when used for rear projection.


PLEXIGLAS® Resist


These impact-modified moulding compounds, multi-skin, corrugated and solid sheets and tubes combine toughness with excellent weather resistance.


PLEXIGLAS® Satinice


This material’s velvet surfaces are robust, pleasant to the touch and discretely light-diffusing. Sheets and tubes are available with a matte satin surface on one or both sides, or with diffuser beads evenly distributed throughout the material, in various colours. Available as diffuser moulding compounds for components with a light-diffusing effect.


PLEXIGLAS®


Solar


These ultra-pure moulding compounds, sheets and Fresnel lenses have specific light transmission properties and high resistance to UV light and weathering, which makes them suitable for high-efficiency solar modules.
