Processing of Lumirror®
Like common plastic films, Lumirror® is easily converted through dyeing, coloring, printing, coating, lamination,
vacuum evaporation, matt processing (etching), molding, slitting processes,etc. As a result of its excellent
dimensional stability, thermal resistance, and chemical resistance, however, Lumirror® can withstand more severe
processing conditions that would be impossible for other films to endure.

Note : These values are typical data for this product under specific test conditions and not intended for use as limiting specifications.
