 Chemie.DE News-Center: GE Introduces New LEXAN® Resin
LEXAN Illuminate resin for blow molding joins another GE VisualfxTM portfolio effect introduced to the water bottle industry in 2000 - LEXAN resin with the Light DiffusionTM effect - which combines transparency, diffusion and eye-catching color to both hide and reveal the contents of a water bottle.
Bottlers can use LEXAN resin with the Illuminate or Light Diffusion effect to help further enhance their water bottles' aesthetics by coupling either effect with GE Plastics' in-mold decoration (IMD) technology to create visually distinctive five-gallon water bottles with exceptionally durable labeling.
Instead of paper or post-molded screen-printed labels, which tend not to age well or last long, bottlers can have the artwork of their label printed on and sealed behind naturally transparent LEXAN film, which is then incorporated into the blow molding process, to create a crisp, colorful and new appearance even after prolonged use.

 Lexan Tablespoon Review at Epinions.com
I’d suspect that once you buy the Lexan Tablespoon, unless you accidentally drive over it or some other huge calamity befalls it, you’ll be using this spoon for as long as you’ll be backpacking and camping and you won’t need to replace it through that whole time.
Lexan doesn’t stain, so if you’re using the spoon in something that you think might stain it (like tomato sauce), don’t worry, once you wash the spoon, it’ll be fine.
Lexan can also be exposed to temperature extremes without any worry – you can go from a stirring a hot liquid to putting the spoon into ice cream and it won’t crack.

 GSI Outdoors Lexan Knife Review at Epinions.com
The Lexan Knife will most likely last for as long as you are camping and when you pack it away, it’s so light you probably won’t even notice it in that backpack.
Lexan is basically unbreakable during normal use and even during most extreme conditions that an average backpacking trip could expose tableware to.
Lexan doesn’t stain like some plastics, so if you’re cooking or eating something that you might think will stain the tableware (like tomato sauce), don’t worry about it – once you wash the knife, it’ll look as good as knew.

 LEXAN’S LEGENDARY LIPID RESISTANCE
Three new Lexan resins are introduced today, including a gamma-stabilised grade that combines improved resistance to lipids with multiple-cycle autoclave sterilisation capability; a gamma-stabilised grade that offers a mid-range melt-flow index (MFI); and a clear, high-heat PC for repeated autoclave use.
The first of the new GE materials is Lexan HPS7 resin, a lipid-resistant polycarbonate also stabilized for exposure to gamma (and electron (e-) beam) irradiation that shows no statistically significant change in physical properties after gamma sterilisation.
Accordingly, Lexan 4404 resin is a potential fit for a variety of surgical instruments and healthcare support equipment, along with certain bio-pharmaceutical applications, where the use of autoclave sterilisation is growing.

 Lumenlab > Lexan glass as a UV protector.
Lexan by itself is a good enough protector of UV, but it needs to be installed the right way round (I believe).
If the lexan is in backward you will get discoloration (over some time period), if it is mounted correctly you won't.
Jun 15 2005, 05:01 PM If it is the wrong way round, the UV will be absorbed by the Lexan instead of the UV filter stuck to the side of it, and this yellows the Lexan over time.
