Abstract: The present invention relates to novel light guide plates composed of a reflector film, of a transparent sheet and of, situated between these, reactive hot-melts or colourless thermoplastics applied by structured printing. No fixed direct connection exists here between the reflector film and the transparent sheet. Light guide plates, e.g. in backlight units (BLUs) or in light panels, have maximum uniformity of thickness and are composed of colourless transparent materials. Light is input here by way of example from LED or CCFL light sources by way of one or more edges of the light guide plate. On at least one surface of the light guide plate there is a structure which scatters the light. When a light beam is incident on the said structure, it is scattered at an angle smaller than the angle of total reflection, and is thus emitted from the plate. The light is emitted at both sides of the plate, and on one side there is therefore mostly a white reflector film which is not in optical contact with the plate.
