Komatex Standard Colors

 

 

Komatex is a very versatile material. It is used for adding attractive color to displays, signs, point of sale and other artistic or decorative structures. Komatex readily accepts silk-screening and digital printing, and is ideal for advanced graphics designs. It's light, durable and keeps its appearance if handled properly, by avoiding prolonged intense sunlight. Architectural Plastics has Komatex in stock, in many colors.

Komatex UV Light-resistance

Product application limits are determined by exposure to natural UV radiation. Komatex tolerates exposure up to 140 kly/cm2/year, which is equivalent to UV radiation experienced in Madrid, Spain.

 

Komatex Linear Thermal Expansion

Komatex will expand and contract depending on fluctuations in temperature. In areas where this product is subjected to 140?F or greater, permanent dimensional damage will result from the softening of the plastics. The use of dark paint or the standard colors other than white is not recommended for outdoor applications. Dark colors have a tendency to absorb more heat, thus increasing the potential for damage.
