PLEXIGLAS® Edgelight 8N LD48 is a highly transparent light guide material based on PLEXIGLAS® 8N.
In addition to the typical properties of PLEXIGLAS® 8N, such as
• Excellent weather resistance
• UV-stability
• Good flow, high mechanical strength
PLEXIGLAS® Edgelight 8N LD48 is developed for edge lit Edgelight 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® Edgelight 8N LD48 is recommended for panels with a distance of 24 cm to 48 cm between two light injecting Edgelight strips.
Application:
Preferably, for injection molding, but can also be used for special extrusion.
