Polycarbonate (PC) is an engineering plastic with excellent comprehensive performance, and its output is second only to polyamide (PA). It has excellent properties such as impact resistance, dimensional stability, heat resistance, and transparency, and is widely used in electronic and electrical appliances and the automotive manufacturing industry.
Compared with ABS, PC/ABS alloy can improve heat resistance, impact resistance, and improve surface defects such as depression and warping of products. Compared with PC, it can improve fluidity, improve processing performance, reduce the sensitivity of products to stress, and reduce production costs.
Taking automotive applications as an example, ABS/PC alloy is a material that is more suitable for automotive interior parts. It has excellent heat resistance, mechanical properties, and good processing fluidity. The Vicat softening temperature of automotive dashboards made of ABS/PC alloy can reach 110-135℃. In addition, it has good coating properties and adhesion to the covering film. The dashboard does not require surface pretreatment and can be directly sprayed with soft topcoat or coated with PVC film. ABS/PC alloy is also used to manufacture automotive parts such as parts around the dashboard, antifreeze plates, door handles, underflow plates, brackets, steering column covers, decorative panels, air conditioning system accessories, etc.
