Iwasaki Electric Co., Ltd. andTeijin Ltd. have announced the joint development of a completely plastic LED lamp that uses a high thermal conductivity resin, made by combining Teijin's Ra-heama high thermal conductivity carbon material with polycarbonate resin, for the housing in place of aluminium. The new lamp, named LED EYE-LAMP, will be released by Iwasaki Electric by the end of this year, as the world's first LED lamp for outdoor illumination that uses plastic for the entire housing except for the bayonet cap.
