LEXAN™ OQ3820 Polycarbonate Resin. Transparent Clear. High Flow

Ophthalmic & Safety Lenses, High Optical Quality & Refractive Index

EXAN™ OQ3820 Polycarbonate Resin is a Transparent Optical-Quality Polycarbonate Grade developed for High-Performance Eyewear and Ophthalmic Lens applications. Combining Outstanding Visual Clarity, UV Protection, and a High-Viscosity Optical Formulation, LEXAN™ OQ3820 Polycarbonate Resin is designed for Precision Optical components where Quality and Durability are Critical.

LEXAN™ OQ3820 Polycarbonate Resin delivers the Exceptional Transparency required for Advanced Optical Products. Its High-Purity Optical formulation supports excellent Light Transmission and Visual Accuracy, helping Lens manufacturers achieve Premium Optical Performance. as a Result, LEXAN™ OQ3820 Resin is well suited for demanding Eyewear applications where Vision Quality Cannot be Compromised.

An important Feature of LEXAN™ OQ3820 Polycarbonate Resin is its Integrated UV Blocking Capability. This Built-In Protection helps Shield users from Harmful Ultraviolet exposure while contributing to Long-Term Lens performance and user Safety. The UV Protection makes LEXAN™ OQ3820 Resin particularly attractive for Outdoor Eyewear and Protective Lens applications.

The High-Viscosity formulation of LEXAN™ OQ3820 Polycarbonate Resin provides enhanced Melt Strength and Processing Stability. This allows manufacturers to maintain Tight Control during Lens Production, supporting excellent Surface Quality and Dimensional Consistency for Precision Optical Parts.

Another benefit of LEXAN™ OQ3820 Polycarbonate Resin is its High Refractive Index, allowing the Production of Thinner and Lighter Lenses without Sacrificing Optical Performance. This Characteristic supports Modern Eyewear Designs Focused on Comfort, Aesthetics, and Performance.

Designed specifically for Optical applications, LEXAN™ OQ3820 Polycarbonate Resin is commonly used in Ophthalmic and Safety Lens Manufacturing where Durability, Visual Clarity, and UV Protection must be delivered together.

LEXAN™ OQ3820 Polycarbonate Resin is RoHS Compliant.

Typical applications include Ophthalmic Lenses, Safety Glasses, Protective Eyewear, Face Shields, Sports Eyewear, and Precision Optical components requiring High Optical Quality and UV Protection.
