Melinex® ST504 is a crystal clear, high gloss, heat stabilized polyester film. It can be overprinted with a wide range of solvent-based graphic inks and varnishes, silver conductive and dielectric inks. It is ideally suited for graphic and certain circuitry layers in membrane touch switches. Melinex® ST504 is pretreated on one side to promote adhesion.
