When overmolded, GLS TPEs bond permanently and virtually seamlessly to many different plastic substrates, including polypropylene (PP), polycarbonate (PC), acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS), PC/ABS, copolyester, polyamide (nylon) and polystyrene (PS). A few grams of a TPE material can often make a major difference to improve the perceived quality or value of an item.

ColorMatrix™ Optica™ Specialty Toners for PC Polycarbonate is used for the production of automotive interiors and appliances to consumer goods and electronics, replacing more traditional materials such as glass and acrylic. The need for better PC color solutions has never been greater. ColorMatrix™ Optica™ Specialty Toners for PC is the cutting-edge liquid toner for polycarbonate resins that provides visual clarity for PC and improves aesthetics on the product surface.

Color is reflective light. Eventually, the color blocks enough light that it appears to be the correct color when viewed by eye. The unfortunate twist to this solution is that different color ways need custom print parameters to achieve satisfactory results.

Successes have included award-winning landscape lighting, vehicle lamps, UV-resistant pool and spa lighting, and differentiated architectural luminaires. PolyOne is exhibiting in booth 535 at Strategies in Light 2018, a premier exhibition showcasing the latest in innovative technologies, products and services for the LED and SSL lighting markets.

ISTANBUL, Turkey – Akboru Elektrik, a leading supplier of lighting systems for pools, hot tubs and gardens, selected Therma-Tech™ thermally conductive polymers from PolyOne to replace aluminum for heat sinks in LED swimming pool lighting. LED lights are much more efficient than incandescent bulbs at transforming electrical power into light, but still generate considerable heat. The diodes that produce light in LEDs are sensitive to high temperatures.
