From anti-fog goggles to skid-resistant floor graphics, from crystal clear LED displays to large-scale in-mold decorated parts, end products are durable, eye-catching and cost-effective.

Printability

Compz* PC film may be an excellent candidate for screen or offset printing and they offer unlimited possibilities to achieve a variety of graphic effects and intricate designs. They can be first (front) surface printed and, due to their excellent clarity across all gauges, they may be suitable for second- surface printing. They offer excellent ink adhesion without pre-treatment and consistently enhance colors, with no loss of depth or vividness in second- surface printing. The films are compatible with a broad range of inks including conventional solvent-based inks, many UV-curing inks, water-based inks and infrared curing inks.

Optical clarity

Across all gauges, high light transmission and low haze values make Compz* PC film one of the highest clarity films available. Most Compz* PC films transmit *0% of visible light, which is a key reason why these materials are commonly used for LED/LC windows.

Thermal stability

The high heat resistance and dimensional stability of Compz* PC film allows close-tolerance registration after repeated heating and drying cycles, as well as close proximity to illumination sources and other heat-emitting components. The film permits end-use performance to **3°C (**0°F), with a continuous use temperature of *5°C (**5°F).

Formability

Compz* PC film's high melt strength facilitates thermoforming using a wide range of techniques. These include vacuum forming, pressure forming, embossing, matched metal forming, hydroforming, drape forming, thermal forming and pressure assist forming. Compz* film also offers the capability to produce deep-drawn, three-dimensional parts.
