Light guide

High transparency silicone rubber moulded components can be used as optical components in various high power lighting systems. By using high transparent silicone rubber Shin-Etsu provides optical components as alternative to glass or plastic components. This material offers transparency of over 90% for visual light in combination with good high temperature resistivity. High precision molding technics are used to create lenses, lightguide and light tubes to transmit high power light from LED’s. Applications: LED matrix lighting systems for car headlights Lightguide tubes for laser lighting systems for car headlights LED street lights
