CLAREX Hard Coat Sheet
CLAREX Hard Coat is applied to the either side of the Cell-Cast PMMA sheet to provide scratch resistance.
- Clarex Optical Grade Precision Sheet with a Hard Coat applied on one (RH10) or both sides (RH20).
- Pencil Hardness of 6-8H.
- Light transparency of 92-93%.
- No birefringence or double refraction, ideal for optical sensor cover application.
- Outstanding optical characteristics.
- Close tolerance and uniform thickness.
- Ultra smooth glass-like surface.
- Excellent weather resistance.
- Non-Glare surface texture can also be applied
- Anti-Reflection Coating surface treatment also available for improved light transmission
- Many standard substrate colours available or colour matching also available.
- Versatile substrate suitable for laser cutting, milling, printing, forming etc.
