Rilsan® Clear, a successful high performance transparent polyamide offering new design opportunities

Rilsan® Clear fulfills genuine market needs by providing greater flexibility and easier processing than existing solutions, creating new opportunities in a number of markets, including sports and leisure.

Rilsan® Clear offers new design possibilities to designers and manufacturers of signature and sports spectacles.

Two new recent developments open up new design opportunities with aesthetic effects:

- Rilsan® Clear is perfectly suited for overmolding onto itself, therefore allowing various colors to be combined.

- Rilsan® Clear and Pebax® offer excellent synergy: the co-injection and overmolding of Rilsan® Clear and Pebax® produce excellent adhesion. Combining transparency with new “feel & touch” effects is now possible.

Transparent in any thickness, Rilsan® Clear offers designers and manufacturers all the benefits of high performance polyamides – light weight, toughness and chemical resistance – to create products that blend comfort and protection with fashion.

With global brands like Rilsan®, Pebax® and Platamid®, unique products like Rilsan® PA11 and leading capacities in Rilsan® PA11 & 12, Arkema’s Technical Polymers Division differentiates itself in the high performance polyamides industry by providing its customers with global coverage and superior regional service from production facilities and research sites in Europe, Asia, and the US.
