Renol deep black colorants also provide excellent resistance to washing and light exposure. Tests show a light fastness of 7 on the blue scale and 4 to 5 on the grey scale (FAKRA) and rubbing and washing fastnesses of 4 to 5. Light fastness (blue scale)

Homepage // News Center // See LEDs in a Brand New Light: PolyOne UltraTuf™ LED Light-Diffusing Sheet Cuts Hot Spots, Improves Design Freedom CLEVELAND – PolyOne today announced the launch of UltraTuf™ LED, a premium light diffusing sheet that combines excellent light transmission and diffusion properties with toughness, chemical resistance and improved design flexibility. We developed new UltraTuf LED sheet with the ability to transmit up to 91% of light while still effectively diffusing the light across the lens,” said Kendall Justiniano, marketing director, Designed Structures and Solutions at PolyOne.

After developing a deep understanding of the customer’s needs, Avient’s team quickly went to work formulating a custom OnCap™ Light Diffusion additive technology, then added a custom OnColor™ color to make a single Smartbatch™ masterbatch solution. This optimized combination of additive and color technology eliminated the “hot spots,” and achieved the sought-after bright white light, and streamlined the entire manufacturing process by enabling in-house production. Smartbatch solutions incorporate color, light diffusion technology and flame retardant into a single masterbatch.

Color is reflective light. Eventually, the color blocks enough light that it appears to be the correct color when viewed by eye. For instance; gold, oranges and pastel colors need less film coverage than blue, purple and red hues.

Monitors transmit color through what’s called additive color synthesis—the method of using two or three distinct stimuli of colored light to create large color ranges. An additive color module is basically RGB (red, green, blue)—or R+G+B = White. It uses the inks to create color by reflecting some wavelengths of light while absorbing others.

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.
