Exceptional Impact Strength: Features extremely high Charpy and Izod notched impact strength (75 kJ/m²), performing exceptionally well when enduring accidental drops or high-intensity mechanical stress.
Outstanding Optical Transparency and Appearance: The amorphous structure grants it high light transmittance and a clean surface, capable of meeting the stringent aesthetic requirements of high-end consumer electronics and optical housings.
Excellent Dimensional Stability: Maintains extremely low linear expansion coefficients and stable mold shrinkage across a broad temperature range, ensuring dimensional tolerances for precision-molded parts.
Good Heat Resistance: Performance in heat deflection temperature and Vicat softening point is outstanding, allowing adaptation to long-term stable operation in high-temperature working environments.
Stable Processing Performance: Melt flow index performance is well-balanced, matching standard injection molding processes, helping to shorten production cycles and reduce defective rates.
Consumer Electronics: Extensively used to manufacture laptop housings, mobile phone components, charger casings, and various high-grade transparent digital accessories.
Appliance Housings and Components: Suitable for hairdryer shells, switch and socket panels, small kitchen appliance structural parts, and other scenarios requiring a balance of insulation properties and aesthetics.
Automotive Components: Frequently utilized for automotive interior parts, light assemblies, sensor housings, and transparent instrument cluster protective covers.
Safety Protection and Medical Devices: Can be used to manufacture protective face shields, transparent observation windows for medical equipment, and small instrument housings.
Toys and Daily Goods: High impact resistance and environmental characteristics make it suitable for manufacturing high-quality children’s toys and durable transparent containers.
Q1: What kind of drying treatment is required for ChiMei WONDERLITE® PC-110 PC before injection molding?
A: Because polycarbonate (PC) possesses trace hygroscopicity, failing to perform adequate drying prior to high-temperature processing will result in material degradation and produce silver streaks or bubbles. It is recommended to use a hot-air circulation dryer before injection molding, drying at 120 °C for 3 to 4 hours to control moisture content below 0.02%.
Q2: Compared to PMMA (Acrylic), what performance advantages does PC-110 offer?
A: Although PMMA features extremely high surface hardness and light transmittance, its impact resistance tends to be brittle. In contrast, ChiMei WONDERLITE® PC-110 PC belongs to high-impact engineering plastics, possessing unmatched toughness and impact strength (notched impact strength reaching 75 kJ/m²), making it much more suitable for structural parts and housings requiring resistance to mechanical stress, drop protection, or shock resistance.
Q3: Does this grade comply with relevant environmental and safety compliance standards?
A: Yes. ChiMei WONDERLITE® PC-110 PC complies with international environmental standards (such as RoHS and REACH directives), and achieves a UL 94 V-2 level in flammability performance, capable of meeting compliance requirements for mainstream global electronic, electrical, and industrial manufacturing markets.
