[Text / Gaogong LED Xu Chaopeng] In the context of automakers exploring the use of lighting in new ways, SABIC has confirmed that it is actively researching automotive window technology that includes integrated lighting.
It is understood that SABIC also disclosed for the first time its development of polycarbonate (PC) with integrated lighting function at the International Automotive Lighting Seminar (ISAL) held in Darmstadt, Germany from September 28 to 30 last year. The work of the car window.
Among them, SABIC demonstrated the rear triangular window with double injection molding of LEXANTM and CYCOLOYTM resin. This window has two sets of decorative lighting components: two blue LED tubes and one white LED strip (with white laser etched graphics).

SABIC shows a prototype of a rear triangular window. This window has two sets of decorative lighting components: two blue LED tubes and one white LED strip (with white laser etched graphics). This window of SABIC is produced by double injection molding of LEXANTM and CYCOLOYTM resins.
To demonstrate its potential use, SABIC published a concept sketch. Among them, a lighting component built into the lightweight polycarbonate window can indicate the battery status of the electric or hybrid vehicle. It is green when fully charged and turns red when it reaches a critical condition. With this feature, the driver can know the state of charge of the battery without having to enter and start the vehicle.
“Our customers are always looking for ways to surprise and be happy,†said Scott Fallon, senior director of automotive business at SABIC. “By combining polycarbonate (PC) window materials with lighting technology, we can open up a whole new range of possibilities to help them do this. Our long-term expertise in each application area, plus our product innovation Supported capabilities can perfectly help automakers develop unique solutions and lead new trends in vehicle design."
SABIC believes that the integration of lighting in the window, in addition to the use of windows to indicate the state of charge of the battery, can also achieve new styles and brand solutions, as well as display other types of useful information.

The “Backbone Challenger 2015†rear light was selected as the finalist for the “Material Category†award of the American Society of Plastics Engineers Automotive Innovation Awards this year. This application uses LEXAN LUX 2289 resin (a polycarbonate material supplied by SABIC). LEXAN LUX resin delivers a unique diffuse visual effect while maintaining colorfastness and reflection at sustained high temperatures. It eliminates the need for post-processing steps such as direct metallization and painting, and each reflector is estimated to save 40% in cost.
It is understood that current car manufacturers have begun to add light touch function on various parts of the vehicle (door handle, side mirror, door inner side, instrument panel, center console and cup holder).
SABIC is a leading developer of automotive polycarbonate (PC) window systems. In addition to introducing new and unprecedented levels of functional integration, these solutions can reduce weight by up to 50% compared to comparable glass materials (depending on the complexity and design of the window components).
In addition, SABIC has a range of other materials that can meet automotive lighting needs and trends. SABIC is used in a wide range of materials for a wide range of lighting components, from fog lamps to the most advanced light-emitting diode (LED) designs for front, rear and interior lighting, including high levels of thermal performance and more. High aesthetics, lighter weight and lower cost. SABIC's automotive lighting materials are available in a variety of options, including all grades of its LEXANTM, ULTEMTM, VALOXTM and STAMAXTM resin line.
