Abrasion Resistant Acrylic Sheet

Abrasion Resistant Acrylic Sheet

Product Description

Excellent optical clarity and high impact strength

Abrasion resistant acrylic sheets are extruded sheet which offers excellent optical clarity and high impact strength with abrasion and chemical resistant properties. It is produced by applying a very hard, polysilicate coating to an optical acrylic substrate. It is available with coating on one side or two sides. While two-side coated sheet provides maximum protection, one-side coated sheet offers economical advantages for applications where only one side of the sheet is exposed. In addition, the un-coated side is ideal for silk screening.

One side & two side

Abrasion resistant acrylic sheets that one side coated is a great glass replacement for flat panel monitors, signs and LCD screens, and framing. Two side coated is suitable for interior and exterior break resistant windows and such so on.

The excellent scratch resistance can be confirmed by the pencil hardness test.

This test involves a pencil being clamped into a device at a 45-degree angle to the surface to be tested, and then being slid across the surface of the test sample. The first pencil hardness (starting with the highest hardness) whose tip does not leave a noticeable scratch is considered the characteristic physical variable. For comparison, conventional acrylic sheet has a pencil hardness rating of HB, while abrasion resistant acrylic sheets has a 5H hardness rating, which is six degrees higher.
