What is Mylar®?
Mylar® is a DuPont® developed and manufactured oriented, multi-use, versatile polyester (PET) film. Throughout our catalog, a few characteristics unitize this polyester product line; Mylar® films do not become brittle with age under normal conditions because there are no plasticizers. Polyester films have great archival quality, dimensionally stability, chemical resistance, moisture resistance, non-tearing properties, electrically insulating properties, balanced tensile properties and a temperature range of - 100 to 300F. Unique properties of optically clear polyester include color consistency, great clarity, and non-yellowing properties.
The brand name Mylar® is the registered trademark owned by the E.I. DuPont Corporation for bi-axially oriented polyester film (BOPET). The term or trade name Mylar® is used to identify polyester or PET that is manufactured using DuPont Teijin Films resin. CS Hyde supplies DuPont® Mylar® Type A film. The generic trade name for Mylar® is PET, or polyethylene terephthalate (PET).

48-F-OC Series - Optically Clear polyester film features similar qualities of Mylar® Type A, except this product is clear/transparent from (1 mil) to (10 mil) thickness. Optically clear polyester is ideal for applications that require see through clarity while maintaining performance properties, examples include alternative windows, lenses for optics applications, or moisture resistance applications. Custom sized sheeting or roll stock available.
48-F-1M Series - Metalized Polyester film features a bright metallic finish and is available in stock. Metalized PET thickness range (1 mil) to (5 mil) Silver metalized Polyester PET film has a super reflective, mirror-like surface composed of a combination of polyester and a thin aluminum coating that is deposited on the surface. Custom sized sheeting or roll stock available.
Polyester PET film is available in full width rolls, sheets, or die cut parts. Also available with 3M® adhesive backing.
Some of the markets we serve include:
Many of the unique characteristics of polyester film are the direct result of biaxial orientation during film manufacturing. Polyester film leads the pack with an exceptional combination of optical, physical, mechanical, thermal, and chemical properties. These features give polyester film a clear performance advantage when compared to other options. And, for all of the environmentalists out there, polyester film is among the most environmentally friendly thermo-plastic engineered films made.
