Description
ACRYLITE® Solar acrylic provides high energy conversion efficiency and premium durability to outdoor weathering, all while being easy to machine and fabricate. In addition, the material’s production leaves a smaller energy footprint than glass. ACRYLITE® Solar offers low refractive index and extremely high light transmittance of over 92%. Standard thicknesses are 3 and 4 mm (48×96 in. sheet)
At about half the weight of glass, ACRYLITE® offers 11 times its impact strength, and can even withstand hailstones. It can take rough treatment, and can be precisely machined and fabricated to fit your application.
Applications
• Covers for build-in photovoltaics
• Hot embossing of radial and linear Fresnel lenses for CPV/CSP applications
