  1. MCPET Microcellular Polyethylene Terephthalate

  2. MCPET IS A HIGHLY REFLECTIVE FOAM MATERIAL FOR LIGHTING APPLICATIONS MCPET offers several advantages over other reflective material and is widely recognised as the number one material for reflectivity and versatility. The key to the material is its microcellular structure which ensures high reflectivity ratios, both overall and diffuse. Compared to BaSo4 Barium Sulphate

  3. REFLECTIVITY Unlike aluminium reflectors MCPET reflects light at different levels - Irregular cell structure reflects the light at different angles - The light reflects from the surface of the material and from within Resulting in a far greater level of diffuse reflectivity

  4. ADVANTAGES

  5. ADVANTAGES OF USING MCPET High Overall reflectivity - better performance High diffuse reflectivity - shallow/homogeneous Isolation - no requirement to earth reflector. Easy installation Lightweight Reliability and durability Securing – cables

  6. ADVANTAGES OF USING MCPET Overall cost reduction Non harmful material Recyclable Thermal deformation = 170°C Melting temperature = 240°C Easier application than aluminium reflectors Equal or higher reflectivity can be achieved with simpler shapes

  7. ADVANTAGES OF USING MCPET Holds curved shape under pressure due to rigidity of material Wires can be secured using MCPET

  8. PROCESSING

  9. PROCESSING OPTIONS Furukawa work with a number of different converters who hold their own stock and can adapt the material to meet the customer's requirements Fold Die cut Adhesive backing and die cut (crease, laser or perforate) Origami Thermoforming

  10. EXAMPLES OF MCPET APPLICATIONS High bay Downlight Base Light

  11. THERMOFORMING

  12. TYPICAL FORMING AND CUTTING TECHNIQUE

  13. MCPET OR MCPOLYCA? ● Lower cost ● High temperature resistant ● Higher reflectivity ● Greater rigidity ● Available with or without ● Greater base to peak ratio UV protection ● Fast forming time

  14. ABILITY TO MAINTAIN SHAPE UNDER HIGH TEMPERATURES REFLECTIVE FILMS HAVE A GREATER RATE OF SHRINKAGE
