[ATM] BVC material properties

>The mirror blanks are made from layers of BVC that are fused together.

I know some material properties are mentioned at the BVC website, but what
would it take for a longer list of material properties to be provided to
places like matweb?

I don't need to know what's secret about its composition, method of
manufacture, etc.  I just want to know more about its material properties.
This sort of info should not give away any secrets about BVC...I hope.
