Plexiglas® LED 8N LD48

About
PLEXIGLAS® LED 8N LD48 is a highly transparent light guide material based on PLEXIGLAS® 8N. In addition to the typical properties of PLEXIGLAS®, such as Excellent weather resistance UV-stability Good flow, high mechanical strength PLEXIGLAS® LED 8N LD48 is developed for edge lit LED applications. The light scattering properties convert the light guide to a full illuminated panel. Furthermore, the material allows for a competely transparent view through the light guide when it is not illuminated. This opens a new degree of freedom for designers. PLEXIGLAS® LED 8N LD48 is recommended for panels with a distance of up to 24 cm to 48 cm between two light injecting LED strips. Application: Preferably, for injection molding, but can also be used for special extrusion. Examples: BLU (Back lighting) for LCD-Displays, illuminated freeform panels, ambient lighting, illuminated handle bars and switches. Illuminated outline contours for devices. Processing: PLEXIGLAS® LED 8N LD48 can be processed on injection molding machines with 3-zone general purpose screws for engineering thermoplastics.&&
