In the MR series, surface hardness of polycarbonate sheet is improved, and higher scratch resistance

is achieved. With its basic characteristics as an polycarbonate sheet, combined with the surface

hardness very close to that of general glass, MR series is widely adopted in such applications as

printed plates and various display covers.

[Characteristics of HM series]High scratch resistanceHard coat on the surface can prevent scratches from wiping and retain high transparency.

Excellent workabilityAs the hard coat surface is highly adhesive, die cutting is easily conducted.

PrintabilityIllustrations or corporate names can be printed on the back side of the sheet. Mask printing can be applied to the processed matte surface.

Attractive appearanceUnnecessary reflection does not occur due to special treatment to prevent surface reflection.

HM series is a hard matte sheet coated for an extra hard surface and then given

an anti-glare surface treatment on one side. Different types of matte texture are available.

HM series is adopted in instrument covers, filter, display covers for office appliances,

LCD covers, printed plates etc.

FilmMR Film series is surface hardness and special developed for high heat process by

reducing heat shrinkage factor to the minimum which enables less print position by

heating. DF02U has high heat process. DF02PU has high weather and scratch resistance with good

formability. MRF08U has good scratch resistance and chemical resistance.
