ACRYLITE® OP-2 acrylic sheet
filters out 98% of the UV-range of light (200-400 nanometers) and offers
excellent light transmission in the visible range between 400 and 700
nanometers. ACRYLITE® OP-2 sheet’s proprietary technology eliminates
the objectionable “yellow tint” evident in other UV-filtering
products. Easily fabricated, it can be thermoformed, cold-formed, screen
printed and painted.
For
your conservation needs, ACRYLITE OP-2 cell cast continuously
manufactured acrylic sheet provide unsurpassed protection from damaging
ultraviolet (UV) light rays. These
unique products are specifically designed with CYRO’s proprietary
technology to ensure exceptional UV protection, excellent optical
quality and clarity. These
properties, combined with ACRYLITE sheet’s impact resistance and ease
of fabrication have established ACRYLITE OP-2 sheet as the standard for
UV protection in the framing, conservation and museum markets. Because
it filters out 98% of the harmful ultraviolet light portion of sunlight,
it is used for display cases and protective glazing, primarily by
museums, galleries and private collections.
ACRYLITE® OP-1 acrylic sheet is a
UV transmitting, cell cast sheet that is usually used for instrument
applications. It contains no additives or stabilizers and, therefore,
should not be used in applications where resistance to degradation from
long term exposure to UV light is an issue.
ACRYLITE® OP-4 acrylic sheet it a UV transmitting, cell cast sheet. The
difference between ACRYLITE® OP-4 sheet and ACRYLITE® OP-1 sheet is
that ACRYLITE® OP-4 sheet contains thermal stabilizers, making it more
more suitable for applications requiring resistance to degradation from
long term exposure to UV light. ACRYLITE® OP-4 is used in appliations
such as sun tanning beds and terreriums. It transmits 70 percent or more
of the available ultra-violet light in the 340 nanometer range.
