Product Focus – PC Lumiplas (LED Light Diffusion) – LG Chem

LG Chem are market leaders in Polycarbonate for LED light diffusion for both injection and extrusion applications.

An extensive range of grades exist dependent on the application from bulb types (high transmittance/low haze), to flat panels (medium transmittance and medium haze) to tube applications (low transmittance/high haze)

Key Properties:

  • Efficient diffusion of light
  • Uniform brightness (no hot spots)
  • Anti-glare
  • Eco-friendly/energy saving technology
  • Excellent optical, thermal and impact properties
  • Grades with UL94 accreditations for flammability V2 at 0.8 mm to V0 at 1mm & 1.6 mm
  • RTI rating at 120°C
  • UV resistance grades including grades with UL746C f1 outdoor weatherability

Applications:
