TECHSPEC® High Contrast Plastic Linear Polarizers (XP42-200 & XP42-300) are ideal for a variety of imaging applications. Offered in multiple sizes, these linear polarizers feature an excellent extinction ratio and high transmission of unpolarized light from 400 – 700nm. The plastic substrate results in a lightweight polarizer, ideal for weight constrainted applications. TECHSPEC® High Contrast Plastic Linear Polarizers (XP42-200 & XP42-300) offer increased durability compared to polarizing film.
When unpolarized light enters a linear polarizer, the light that is polarized perpendicular to the polarization axis is absorbed, and light parallel to the polarization axis is transmitted. TECHSPEC® High Contrast Plastic Linear Polarizers (XP42-200) utilize a stretched PVA film to create the polarization axis. To increase durability, the film is then laminated between two plastic plates.
Note: These linear polarizers are not recommended for laser applications.
If you have a need for any round, square, or rectangular size of a TECHSPEC High Contrast Plastic Linear Polarizers (XP42-200) in dimensions between 3mm and 600mm, please visit our Polarizing Film Tool. We’ll provide an immediate quote, and can deliver the part to your requested size in approximately 3 weeks. A full list of standard manufacturing tolerances and restrictions are listed.
