Transparent or translucent covers used in automotive headlights are usually made of PMMA (polymethylmethacrylate) plastic. PMMA is an excellent transparent plastic with the following characteristics, making it an ideal choice for automotive headlight housings:
1.Excellent transparency: PMMA has excellent light transparency, which can effectively transmit and scatter the light in car lights, in order to provide clear and bright lighting effects.
2.Ultraviolet (UV) resistance stability: Car lights need to be exposed to sunlight, so the UV resistance of PMMA is very important. PMMA generally has good resistance to color fading and surface aging caused by ultraviolet rays.
3.Chemical resistance: PMMA has good resistance to some chemical substances and can prevent some chemical pollution from damaging the cover.
4.Lightweight: PMMA is a relatively lightweight material, which helps reduce the overall weight of the car light assembly and contributes to vehicle fuel efficiency and performance.
5.Easy to form: PMMA material is easy to form and process, which makes it easier to manufacture complex-shaped car light housings.
6.Wear resistance: PMMA has certain wear resistance and can resist surface scratches and abrasions.
Due to these properties, PMMA is widely used in the manufacturing of housings for automotive headlights, taillights, turn signals and other car light components. This material is widely used in automotive manufacturing as it not only provides good light transparency but also maintains its appearance and performance over the lifetime of the vehicle.
