Film Facts
Film Thickness: 1.0 mil
Total Haze *        10.5%

     Clarity **   

96.3%

     Light Transmission

94.1%
Total Gloss 45°                                    53
* Based on ASTM D1003 which is angled  observation (usually 45° or 60°). It is a measure of light scattered beyond 2.5% of the original angle of incidence.

** Based upon a light source and observation angle that is perpendicular (90°) to the sample. It is a measure of the amount of transmitted light or scatter with direct light that is within ±2.5% angle of the incident light.
