Illuminated front brand emblems and magnetic-levitation wheel logos have become iconic styling features across new energy vehicles (NEVs) and modern internal combustion engine (ICE) models. However, housing these embedded LED point light sources presents severe optical and material challenges. Unmodified optics often suffer from localized glare spots, uneven brightness, low heat resistance, and yellowing from outdoor UV exposure
To solve these manufacturing bottlenecks, Qingdao Zhongxin Huamei Plastic Co., Ltd. offers specialized optical-gradelight diffusion Polycarbonate (PC) resin engineered specifically for illuminated automotive emblem lenses and outer housings

Key Optical, Thermal & Structural Advantages for Auto Emblems
Our specialized light diffusion PC material transforms harsh LED point sources into smooth, premium surface illumination while offering robust exterior protection
[Harsh LED Point Source] ➔ [Uniform Diffusion Particles in PC Matrix] ➔ [Smooth Surface Glow (99% Haze)] ➔ [Zero Hotspots / Glare]
Balanced Transmittance (70%–90%) & High Haze (up to 99%): At a standard 2.0 mm wall thickness, the material delivers a tuned 70%–90% light transmittance combined with up to 99% light diffusion haze
. Internally dispersed diffuser particles scatter LED point lights into a soft, uniform area light, completely eliminating glare spots and enhancing emblem visual depth across vehicle unlock, driving, and charging modes . High Thermal Resistance (125°C HDT): Inheriting superior PC thermal properties, the compound achieves a heat deflection temperature (HDT) of 125°C
. It easily withstands continuous heat conducted from engines, brake systems, and high-power LEDs without warping or softening . Stone-Chip Impact Strength & Dimensional Stability: High impact resistance shields emblem covers against flying road gravel and debris
. A stable 0.4%–0.6% molding shrinkage rate accommodates complex curved and thin-walled emblem geometry, increasing finished component yields by approximately 5% compared to general optical plastics . Outdoor Weatherability & Flame Retardancy: Formulated for harsh outdoor service, the material resists solar UV degradation, surface hazing, and yellowing
. It complies with RoHS environmental standards and meets the UL94 V2 flame retardancy rating .
