PLEXIGLAS® Solar IM20

Generic Family: Acrylic, Polymethyl Methacrylate • Supplied by: Röhm GmbH
PLEXIGLAS® Solar IM20 is an amorphous thermoplastic molding compound (PMMA).

Typical properties of PLEXIGLAS® molding compounds are:
  • Good flow
  • High mechanical strength, surface hardness and abrasion resistance
  • High light transmission
  • Very good weather resistance
  • Easy to process
  • High heat resistance

Special properties of PLEXIGLAS® Solar IM20 are:
  • Adjusted transmission characteristics for photo voltaic applications (PV, CPV)
  • Increase of power yield and module efficiency
  • Prolonging lifetime of cells, lenses or covers.

Application:
Field of use is injection molding of optical and technical parts as well as extrusion of profiles and sheets.

Examples:
Covers for build-in photo voltaic, radial and linear Fresnel lenses for CPV/CSP applications.
