I'm in UK.
When you want to get inexpensive and non precision tube, rod, block, sheet,
or plate etc to use as a general (ie non precision) light diffusion material
or to use as a waveguide of sorts to propagate light (like say akin to a
light pipe), where do you get your stuff from? Do you just buy from your
regular plastics suppliers?
I suppose the materials could be almost any clear or translucent plastic. I
want to see how light passes through a tube and see how much gets reflected
out from a tube or rod. I was thinking about using some clear or
translucent polycarbonate tube or rod for a project. I thought that might be
good stuff to mess with.
If anyone has any recommended sites where I can get the kind of materials in
the shapes I mention that can be used for light experiments on
diffusion/light scattering and propagation, please feel free to post a link.
Thanks.
