Optical Properties of Polymers
Polymer optical properties testing for manufacturers, converters, and end-users of polymeric materials.
Optical properties of polymers are important for a wide range of applications, ranging from packaging, where the aesthetics of an underlying product must be maintained, through to glazing products in both the automotive as the construction industry.
Fundamental optical properties testing for plastics:
- Colour
- Gloss
- Haze
- Clarity
- Refractive index
- Birefringence
If measured optical properties are not optimal for your desired specifications, Intertek laboratories can provide additional chemical and physical analysis testing to help determine the root-cause and provide guidance on the modification for improvement of a material's optical properties. Contact Intertek for more information on Optical Properties testing for polymers and plastics.
