Panasonic innovation to extend operating life of LEDs

OSAKA, April 7, 2016

Panasonic Corporation has announced that it has developed a light diffusion type polypropylene (PP) resin moulding compound, called Full Bright PP, which can extend the operating life of LEDs.

The industry’s first introduction of a material applicable for injection stretch blow moulding enables the formation of complex shapes and contributes to greater product design freedom for customers, said a statement from the company.

In addition to injection moulding, this material can also be used for injection stretch blow molding process that was previously believed to be difficult using conventional light diffusion PP resin moulding compounds, enabling customers to form complex shapes with greater freedom based on individual customer applications, it added.

Ability to produce 0.5-mm thin moulding, which was previously unachievable; achieved less than 10 per cent thickness accuracy by processing; company’s previously used material generated a hole when a product was blown to a 0.5-mm thickness, it said.

Conquered the previous weakness of light resistance of the conventional PP resin moulding compounds and achieved excellent resistance to chemicals, contribute to extend the operating life of LED lighting, it added. – TradeArabia News Service
