Plexiglas® Hi-Gloss NTX-8
Polymethyl Methacrylate Acrylic
PLEXIGLAS® NTX-8 is an amorphous thermoplastic molding compound (PMMA). In addition to the typical properties of PLEXIGLAS® molding compounds like:
PLEXIGLAS® NTX-8 does have the following features:
PLEXIGLAS NTX-8 is available in coloured state only.
Application:
PLEXIGLAS® NTX-8 is particularly suitable for injection molding of technical components. Owing to ist superior brilliance, high-gloss (Class A) black surfaces can be obtained without an expensive painting process. Due to the improved flowing properties NTX-8 is suitable for sandwich molding of e.g. B-pillar covers or decorative trim parts for automotive interior.
Examples:
ad-on automotive trim parts, pillar covers, mirror housings, interior decorative trim parts etc.
