Zusammenfassung: | A multilayered reflective body which is thermoformable and capable of being fabricated into films, sheets and a variety of parts while maintaining a uniform reflective appearance is provided. The reflective polymeric body includes at least first and second diverse polymeric materials of a sufficient number of alternating layers of the first and second polymeric materials such that at least 30 percent of the light incident on the body is reflected. A substantial majority of the individual layers of the body have an optical thickness of not more than 0.09 micrometers or not less than 0.45 micrometers, and adjacent layers of the first and second polymeric materials differ from each other in refractive index by at least 0.1. The reflective body may be fabricated into sheets, mirrors, noncorroding metallic appearing articles and parts, reflectors and reflective lenses. |
