How to Extend the Service Life of the Acrylic Sheet?

Acrylic sheet has been used in various fields due to its excellent characteristics, especially in the optical field. So do you know how to maintain acrylic sheet to extend its service life? As a acrylic sheet supplier, I’d like to share it with you.

Acrylic Sheet Waxing

If you want the brilliance of the acrylic sheet, you can use liquid polishing wax and wipe it evenly with a soft cloth to achieve the goal.

Adhesion of Acrylic Sheet

If the product is accidentally damaged, you can use an adhesive such as methylene chloride or a quick-drying agent to stick it.

Cleaning of Acrylic Sheet

Acrylic sheet, if there is no special treatment or hardening agent added, the product itself is easy to wear and scratch. Therefore, the general dust treatment can be wiped with chicken feather blanket or rinsed with water, and then wiped with a soft cloth. If the surface is oily, you can add water with a soft detergent and scrub it with a soft cloth.

Polishing of Acrylic Sheet

If the product is scratched or the surface wear is not very serious, you can try to use a polishing machine (or car waxing machine) to install a cloth wheel, dip an appropriate amount of liquid polishing wax, and evenly polish it to improve.

Storage of Acrylic Sheet

Please ensure that acrylic sheet is placed in a cool, ventilated and dry place. In high temperature storage environment, it is recommended to use PE plastic film to package Acrylic Sheet.


 

Application Note

 

Prevent High Temperature

The temperature of the acrylic panel should not be higher than 90 degrees during continuous application, because the thermal deformation of the general acrylic panel is stable at about 100 degrees, and the temperature of the general acrylic panel will cause thermal deformation at 98 degrees. Therefore, high temperature deformation of acrylic products should be prevented. .

Prevent Sharp Objects From Touching

The surface hardness of acrylic sheet is equivalent to that of aluminum. Although the hardness is now great, it is still very easy to scratch. Therefore, we try our best to keep acrylic sheet away from the touch and friction of these sharp objects.

Pay Attention to Thermal Expansion and Contraction

Acrylic sheet has the characteristics of thermal expansion and contraction. In summer, the length, width, and thickness of Acrylic Sheet will increase; in winter, it decreases. The thermal expansion coefficient of acrylic sheet is relatively large, and its expansion and contraction is about nine times that of metals. Therefore, the factory should consider the thermal expansion and cold shrinkage coefficients of acrylic panels in the installation process, and there must be stretch gaps in the assembly process. This is the detail that must be paid attention to in the process of assembling the acrylic panel.

Plastic Artist-Acrylic Processing Technology

Acrylic can be used casting, injection molding, extrusion, thermoforming, laser engraving, laser cutting and other processes. Casting molding Casting molding for forming plexiglass sheet, bar and other profiles, that is, body-bulk polymerization method of forming profiles. After casting molded products need to be post-processed, post-processing conditions are incubated at 60 ℃ 2 hours, 120 ℃ for 2 hours. Injection molding Injection molding using suspension polymerization obtained pellets, molding in the ordinary plunger or screw injection molding machine. Process parameters include screw injection molding machine, plunger injection molding machine, barrel temperature, injection molding products also need to eliminate the internal stress treatment, processing in the hot air circulation oven at 70 ~ 80 ℃, processing time as the thickness of acrylic products, the general All about 4 hours. Thermoforming Thermoforming is the process of making plexiglass sheets or she...

Development Background of LED Diffuser Sheet

Led diffuser plate  is an important part from the past to now. Glass was used as the lampshade initially, but the glass was not brittle and the diffusion effect of light was not very good. It was difficult to meet the lighting requirements. Later, it gradually developed to replace glass with resin, but if only transparent resin lampshade, although the light transmittance is high, the basic can reach more than 90%, but the light diffusion effect is not ideal, poor light concealment. The white resin, whose light transmittance is too low, seriously affects the illumination of the LED lamp. In this case, techniques such as adding milky white pigments and surface scrubbing aids are used. Although this solves the issue of light source shielding, there is an excessively low light transmittance, which seriously affects the efficacy of LED lighting. Therefore, the problem of diffusion masks has been plagued by problems. In such a contradictory problem of light rate and light source shieldin...

Is Acrylic Suitable for Lights?

When decorating a room, in addition to some decoration materials, you also need to install lamps and lanterns. Because lamps and lanterns are very important in people's life and can provide lighting. In the dark night, you can work and live as in the daytime. In recent years, acrylic lamps are especially popular. There are many types of acrylic lamps, and people may not know how to choose when they are choosing. In this blog post, I will give you details on how to choose acrylic lights and what to look for when installing acrylic lights .   The advantages of acrylic lights Color The color is very durable. Acrylic panels are glossy, bright and colorful, and the colors are durable for 5-8 years. In other words, it will not change or fade in 5-8 years. Transparent High light transmission. Transparent  acrylic sheets  provide over 90% light transmission. The built-in light source provides uniform and soft nighttime brightness. Compared to neon, acrylic letters as a whole are ...
