Röhm will showcase premium PMMA products for automotive, lighting, electronics and medical industry at ChinaPlas on April 13-16 in Shenzhen. After more than 10 years history as an exhibitor with ChinaPlas, this April will see the German Company’s debut as an independent company.

Of all the PMMA exhibits for automotive, lighting and optical, electronics and medical industries, the booth highlight will be a 3.3*2.8m jet-black wall at the central front of the booth, which looks like a normal panel. Suddenly, information and videos appear on the wall, seemingly out of nowhere. The message remains hidden until the LED display is switched on. This is the black panel effect presented by PLEXIGLAS®. Also known as Secret until lit effect, this application is increasingly in demand for the interiors of modern cars for displaying cockpit and infotainment systems.

Also showcased will be automotive rear lights in the form of strip, pillars, color changing doors made of PLEXIGLAS® LED, art pieces made of PLEXIGLAS® samples and Thermomix with a PLEXIGLAS® housing. PLEXIGLAS is a highly versatile material that offers great design freedom. In addition to its excellent optical properties, it is highly weather resistant and easy to mold and process. Delicate design, combined with a range of functions, has allowed the proven material’s properties to be perceived in an emotional way.

PLEXIGLAS® Optical HT is another highlight at the show. The recently launched product inherited all the excellent weather resistance and durability of the PLEXIGLAS® product series, while boasting the first-class optical quality as PLEXIGLAS® 8N and a higher long term service temperature, close to that of PLEXIGLAS® Heatresist. The new product provides greater design flexibility for luminaries and especially light guides of headlamps.

PLEXIGLAS® Optical HT can resist temperatures up to 105° C degrees. This is confirmed by the RTI rating according to the UL 764B standard. Same as all other PLEXIGLAS® grades, the new product is also 100% recyclable.

Benjamin Ling, Röhm Asia President said, “With more than 100 years history, Röhm also stands for quality and pioneering spirit. We wish to continue to explore new areas of applications and create value added products on the value chain.

We are committed to developing the right solutions together with our customers and enable the innovation in the automotive, lighting and electronics and medical industries.”
