8 aspects to help you quickly understand the characteristics of silicone lenses

October 25, 2024
Silicone lens, which is also known as silicone optical lens, is made of ultra-transparent liquid optical silicone material by LSR Liquid injection molding process.It is suitable for outdoor lighting and automotive lighting applications. Silicone lenses are a game changer in the field of LED lighting, and unlike traditional glass or plastic lenses, these silicone lenses are made with optical liquid silicone material, offering a wide range of advantages for a variety of optical applications, from industrial lighting to automotive headlight lighting. Silicone lenses are designed to improve the reflection and refraction of light, thereby improving the lighting performance of LED lights.

The following is an optimized description of the main characteristics of silicone lenses:

1. Excellent light transmittance

The light transmittance of silicone lenses is as high as 94% to 96%, which is superior to plastic optical lenses to ensure maximum light output.

2. Resistance to extreme temperatures

Silicone lenses can withstand temperatures from -40 to 200 degrees Celsius, making them ideal for LED lighting applications. For TVS, most of the operating temperature is about 80 degrees Celsius, while for headlights, it can reach 150 degrees Celsius.

3. Durable and non-yellowing:

Even after 5,000 hours of 85 ° C /85% aging test, the silicone lens does not show signs of yellows or discoloration, ensuring long-lasting performance.

4. Uv resistance

Unlike plastic lenses, silicone lenses are resistant to ultraviolet light, preventing cracking or degradation when exposed to sunlight.

5. Waterproof design

The silicone lens features a self-sealing waterproof silicone ring that provides overall water resistance for increased durability.

6. Lightweight, energy saving

Compared to traditional materials, silica gel lenses have a lower density of about 1.05 to 1.08, helping to improve energy efficiency and reduce energy consumption.

7. Shock and explosion proof

The flexibility of the silicone lens makes it resistant to explosions and shocks, ensuring reliability in a variety of environments.

8. High mobility

Optical liquid silicone lenses provide better molding flow and faster flow at the same pressure and temperature, which allows for the creation of sharp corners, angles and other Angle designs in silicone lenses. In addition, silica gel lenses can be remolded with other materials to achieve a lightweight design and minimize light loss.
