OPTICAL MOULDING | INNOVATION
high-performance materials – including two grades of high-temperature Lexan CXT polycarbonate copolymer, an Ultem polyetherimide (PEI) resin and an Extem polyimide resin – are among the first resins to be added to OpticStudio, giving design- ers of optical sensors and lenses new and innova- tive material choices beyond glass and epoxy resins.
SABIC says that the four thermo-optical poly- mers now listed in the Zemax OpticStudio data- base are well suited to the demands of optical component miniaturisation and address the challenges of integrating extensive functionality into limited space. Lexan CXT 17 and Lexan CXT 19 PC copolymers can deliver a balance of high-tem- perature resistance, high flow and excellent colour stability under extreme moulding conditions. The two copolymers have a high refractive index over 1.6 and high transparency in the UV-visible spectrum range. Ultem 1010 PEI resin can offer inherent flame retardance, high strength and dimensional stability, high light transmittance in the infrared spectrum range and the ability to with- stand a broad temperature range of -40 to 180°C. Extem XH1015 polyimide resin can provide
extreme high-temperature resistance and high flow for miniaturised, complex or thin-wall parts.
