LEXAN polycarbonate resin is an amorphous engineering thermoplastic with a glass-transition temperature of 150\u00b0C. Polycarbonate retains its typical properties such as high stiffness and impact resistance up to 135\u00b0C. Glass-fiber-filled variants have very good creep resistance even at high temperatures.<\/p>\n
\u25cf Amorphous structure with the ability to continuously operate at a temperature of 115\u00b0C
\n\u25cf High stiffness, hardness, and impact resistance over a wide temperature range
\n\u25cf Transparent
\n\u25cf Easy to color
\n\u25cf Flame-retardant properties<\/p>\n
LEXAN resin has a high optical clarity but is also available in translucent, diffused, and opaque colors.<\/p>\n
The product family contains a wide range of viscosities, varying levels of flame-retardancy, and stabilizers such as UV and heat. There are also variants approved for contact with foodstuffs and biocompatibility.<\/p>\n
The material can be both injection-molded and extruded, and is commonly used in the automotive industry for external applications and interior details. It is also very suitable for medical-technological equipment and optical applications.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-21050","material-plast","type-material-plast","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.erteco.se\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/material-plast\/21050","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.erteco.se\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/material-plast"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.erteco.se\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/material-plast"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.erteco.se\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=21050"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
