White Polyimides

Thermalbright® Polyimide

Thermalbright® Polyimide is a breakthrough high temperature, highly reflective, essentially opaque, white polyimide film. Typical polyimides are orange colored and highly absorptive when filled with white pigments, but Thermalbright is bright white in color and contains no silicones, acrylics or non-polyimide polymers.

Thermalbright® is highly customizable and available in two different versions, Thermalbright® C with electrostatic dissipative (ESD) properties and Thermalbright® N for applications that require electrical insulation.

Performance

Unlike traditional “white polyimides,” Thermalbright® Polyimide is not a white acrylic laminate on top of an orange polyimide, it is a single film of white polyimide. This novel material is useful in thermal control applications requiring high UV and VUV durability. Thermalbright® Polyimide is ideal for use as thermal control materials, high-temperature labels, high temperature reflective materials, and other materials requiring long-duration exposure to extreme environments while retaining high reflectivity.

  • High Optical Density / Light Blocking
  • Low Solar Absorptivity (0.11) High Emissivity (>0.64 at 1 mil thickness)
  • Low-Temperature Cure
  • Sprayable and Castable
  • Glass Transition Temperature 263 °C

Thermalbright® Polyimide is available as a film, or in resin form for spray and casting application.

Other Applied materials are available in white as well.
