Elastolite

ELastoLite is a flexible, thin electroluminescent (“EL”) lighting technology. ELastoLite is a polyurethane ink structure that is a three dimensional, elastomeric, membranous polymer thick film. The material can be printed on almost any surface. The material is power efficient and emits no heat when lit. It can be compression or in-molded onto plastics and other substrates, combined with any substrate material. Heat transfer and direct printing is under development. The design can be made in multiple colors as well as animated or flashing.
The ELastoLite film is durable, and can be operated in harsh outdoor working environments. It is water resistant, flexible and crushable, but will still operate and emit light from all angles. ELastoLite is machine washable and dryable.
Oryon is focusing on developing solutions for the textile, apparel (specifically sports and safety), and membrane switches industries. ELastoLite® technology has been used and tested as:
-inclusion as the keypad light source in over 125 million cell phones (including the Motorola RAZR cell phone);
-apparel products developed and sold by well-known companies such as Nike
-costume lighting in the Disney film “Tron Legacy”
