    Visible and IR Transmitting Polymer

    Lol well I appreciate the input! I saw this company (link below) had developed a polymer window for visible and IR freq transmission and I wasn't sure if this was made with a more prevalent material that I had just not come across...

    Visible and IR Transmitting Polymer

    I am attempting to find a suitable material. As mentioned in the original post, I have tested materials such as PC, acrylic and PETg.

    Visible and IR Transmitting Polymer

    I had noticed yes. I will need a thickness significantly larger than this. As this will be applied as a protective window I will likely need the sheet to be 1/4" to 1/2" thick depending on the other characteristics of the polymer.

    Visible and IR Transmitting Polymer

    I appreciate the lead Pud! I acquired the transmission characteristics from the manufacturer. Unfortunately the IR spectrum for TOPAS is also very limited in the 7-14 micron range - see below.

    Visible and IR Transmitting Polymer

    Does anyone know of specific polymers that can pass visible wavelengths (clear material) as well as IR wavelengths in the range of 7-14 microns. I have tested both clear acrylic (Plaskolite-OPTIX) and polycarbonate (Plaskolite-TUFFAK) with an IR camera (Fluke) since their FTIR shows some IR...
