Q1. How much are the refractive indices of Techpolymer and ordinary resins?
A1.
Following are the refractive indices of such ordinary resins as PMMA, polystyrene, and polycarbonate, and those of Techpolymer by grades.

Q2. How wide are the adjustable range of refractive index of Techpolymer and what happens after tuning?
A2.
The refractive index is adjustable between 1.49 and 1.59. Particles with higher or lower refractive indices than the range are under development. The greater the difference in refractive index between base resin and Techpolymer is, the higher the light diffusion is.
Q3. What grades are there by particle shape and size?
A3.
For shape, Techpolymer comes up in spherical, porous, and nonspherical grades. For size, the mean particle size is between 2 - 200 μm. Production of larger and smaller particles than such particles is technically possible. Please consult.
Q4. How is the size distribution of Techpolymer?
A4.
Size distribution is controllable. S and SS series have a sharper distribution than the standard type. Please contact.
