Recommendation for Infrared Transmitting resin
(OP)
Gentleman hello,
I would like your help to define an Infrared Transmitting resin for a part i am designing, the part is a cover (see attached picture) for an IR transmitter, the cover snaps into a designated opening in some other part.
Manufacturing method: Injection molding.
Material properties: Infrared Transmitting resin for 850NM wave length, not very rigid for snap features to work well.
Color: Black.
Thanks for your help.

It's quite stiff with a low elongation before break so you will have to do the sums for your snap fit cantilevers.
