Meller Optics Unveils Innovative Petroleum-Free Optical Polishing Pitch
Meller Optics Introduces Sustainable Optical Polishing Pitch
Meller Optics, Inc. has recently unveiled an innovative line of optical polishing pitch that is not only efficient but also environmentally friendly. This new product series is entirely petroleum-free and available in five distinct hardness grades, making it suitable for a wide array of optical polishing needs.
What is Optical Polishing Pitch?
Optical polishing pitch plays a crucial role in the fabrication of precision optics. It is a material used in conjunction with laps to improve the surface quality of optical components. Traditional polishing pitch often contains petroleum-based materials, leading to environmental concerns. With Meller's new Gugolz Optical Polishing Pitch, users can now achieve high-quality optical finishes without compromising on environmental sustainability.
Key Features of Gugolz Optical Polishing Pitch
Meller’s Gugolz Optical Polishing Pitch is made from all-natural wood resin, a significant advantage in preventing contamination of both the polishing media and the substrate. This pitch is ready for use with a straightforward application process: it can be sliced, melted, and poured onto the lap, streamlining the manufacturing process for optical components.
This high-purity pitch comes in various grades, stretching from very-soft to very-hard, with melting points ranging from 52°C to 87°C. Such specifications ensure that it meets diverse needs—from blocking and lapping to polishing precision optics. Each batch maintains high consistency, allowing manufacturers to use the exact grade necessary for their applications.
Compatibility and Applications
One of the standout features of Meller's Gugolz Optical Polishing Pitch is its versatility. It is compatible with virtually any optical substrate, including materials such as CaF2, germanium, quartz, sapphire, silicon, and ZnSe. The ability to match specific grades to requirements makes it an ideal choice for precision optics fabrication, where accuracy and quality are paramount.
Pricing and Availability
Meller's Gugolz Optical Polishing Pitch is priced at $45.00 per 1 kg container, with each box containing 12 units. This reasonable pricing structure encourages manufacturers to choose a product that aligns with their sustainability goals without straining their budgets.
