PLEXIGLAS® Edgelight 8N LD12

Generic Family: Acrylic, Polymethyl Methacrylate • Supplied by: Röhm GmbH
PLEXIGLAS® Edgelight 8N LD12 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® Edgelight 8N LD12 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 LD12 is recommended for panels with a distance of up to 12 cm between two light injecting Edgelight 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.
