Dow has launched SILASTIC™ MS-5002 Moldable Silicone, a LSR for high-volume production of parts, such as the light guides in adaptive driving beam headlights. This new optical material has very low mold fouling for faster cycle times and is specially formulated for injection molded parts with less-complex geometries.
RDAbbott and Dow recently sponsored a Rubber & Plastics News “Ask the Expert” livestream presentation on “Optical Silicone Advances.” A recording of this presentation is now available on-demand.
RDAbbott will deliver a technical presentation about innovative silicone additives technologies and host an “Ask the Expert” session highlighting optical silicone advances during the 2020 International Silicone Conference. The International Silicone Conference is a biennial event that will feature a virtual edition this year.
Join us for a free Dow webinar hosted by LED Magazine on Tuesday, October 13, 2020, at 11 AM (ET) to hear about the optical and aging performance benefits of Dow’s next-generation moldable optical silicones in LED lighting.
For brighter, more energy-efficient, more unique and longer-lasting lighting systems, we highly recommend you take a look at Dow’s innovative, high-performance silicone materials for protection and assembly and secondary optics.
Darkoo Optics Co., Ltd., an internationally reputable producer of optical lenses that enhance high-performing LED illumination sources, recently collaborated with Dow Corning to develop two new lenses for high-bay lighting fixtures.
