Optical polymers are very specialized materials.
Not only are they lightweight, easy to process, strong, inexpensive and transparent; some of them (like the OKP polyesters) have high refractive index.
High refractive index??
Refractive index is a measure of how...
In recent decades the quality of plastic optics has improved drastically. What was formerly considered to be cheap, low-quality lenses are now high-quality, lightweight, low-cost, precision optics. These optics can be seen everywhere (though more likely you...
