Zusammenfassung: | A molded body (102) comprising-a wall having a wall thickness, between a minimum and a maximum value-the wall comprising a transparent polymeric material and glass particles (104) being embedded in the polymeric material,-said glass particles having a shape of an air bubble and having a particle size in a range of 0.3 mm to 0.9 times the maximum value of the wall thickness. The effect of using air bubble-shaped glass particles having a particle size in the range of 0.3 mm to 0.9 times the maximum wall thickness is that the particles inside the transparent body are individually visible to the human eye. These individually visible particles give the visual appearance of inclusions of air bubbles or droplets inside the transparent polymeric material. The molded body can be obtained by mixing glass particles into a transparent polymer matrix material by injection molding techniques known per se. |
