Coated LEXAN™ – Polycarbonate

Product Summary

Tough environments call for tough films. Think protecting an outdoor control panel at a chemical plant, keeping a snowboarder’s goggles fog-free in a blizzard, or guarding the in-mold decorations in the family car from scratches and scrapes.

What’s the common thread binding them? They all use LEXAN™ polycarbonate coated film, from SABIC.

Challenges and Solutions

1.
Medical teams entering tropical regions to investigate disease outbreaks need PPE goggles and visors that won’t fog up in the high humidity.
LEXAN HP92AF is an anti-fog film specially designed for maintaining visibility in high-humidity environments. Moreover, it is scratch and chemical resistant to protect the PPE for accidental damage.

2.
An auto interior design team needs a high-gloss, scratch- and cleaner-resistant in-mold decoration (IMD) for an HVAC bezel.
LEXAN HP92T film provides excellent scratch and chemical resistance to fulfill this needs, with the 92 gloss giving a polished finish.
Solve
3.
A machinery maker is designing outdoor equipment for use at a chemical plant, and needs flat membrane switch overlays for the control panel and safety labels that won’t deteriorate during frequent use.
LEXAN HP12W is a good choice. Chemical and weather resistant with a matte finish, this coated film will be durable in the harsh environment, and minimizes reflection for easy readability.

Frequently Asked Questions


Please visit our datasheet page for the film type in question to view the mechanical, thermal, physical, optical, and electrical (where relevant) properties in detail.


High performance, Anti-fog and Anti-glare


The high-performance (HP) grades are available in four different surface finishes. 92 gloss = Polished High gloss and smooth, with a wet look | 60 gloss = Very fine matte Low glare – not as smooth as polished | 40 gloss = Fine matte Reduced surface reflection and gloss | 12 gloss = Matte Lowest surface reflection and gloss. Depending on the grade, you can print on either the first, second or both surfaces the film films, and all grades are designed for easy die-cutting and processing.
