Specular reflection is a reflection of light in which a single incoming ray of light is reflected into a single outgoing direction. Specular reflective material reflects light from the surface creating a mirror-like reflection. Specular reflection occurs for all polished and smooth surfaces, such as mirrors. Polyvinyl chloride (PVC), polyurethane (PU), thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU), and others are used to produce specular reflective material. Specular reflective material finds application in automobile, aerospace, building and construction sectors for aesthetic purposes.
