Energy-efficient and cost-effective street lighting
A new street light product within the “Eco StreetLine” range developed by Hella KGaA Hueck & Co. reduces energy consumption by up to 60 percent. The lenses of these energy-saving lights are made of transparent Makrolon® LED polycarbonate from Bayer MaterialScience.
Design with Makrolon® thermally conductive polymers
The last few years have seen significant development of injection-moldable, thermally conductive polymers. Electronic and lighting manufacturers are realizing new-found freedom in both design and assembly with these materials. Traditional die cast processes limit shape, add weight and, due to high processing temperatures, restrict electronic component integration. On the other hand, thermally conductive polymers such as Makrolon® TC8030 polycarbonate from Bayer MaterialScience and the injection molding process increase packaging freedom while reducing mass and enable in-mold integration not possible with die casting.
Seeing is believing
Bayer MaterialScience will be showcasing its products and technologies at two upcoming industry trade shows – Strategies in Light and LIGHTFAIR International. If you’ll be there, we hope you’ll stop by Bayer’s booths to see our lighting solutions firsthand.
