XANTAR® POLYCARBONATE
Mitsubishi Engineering Plastics's XANTAR® Polycarbonate is a versatile thermoplastic resin that is suitable for a wide range of applications and can be converted using all common melt-processing techniques. The XANTAR® product line consists of general purpose and special grades.
Although the XANTAR® portfolio covers a very wide range of applications, specific requirements (e.g. special flame retardancy regulations, extreme temperatures) or processing techniques (e.g. blow moulding, extrusion or rotational moulding) can require fine-tuning or adaptation of a grade. This has resulted in a series of special tailor-made XANTAR® grades.
For example, for very high demands related to mechanical performance at both high and extreme low temperatures, as well as excellent long-term performance, the XANTAR XRM product line offers excellent solutions.
For extrusion applications, optimised grades are available for solid sheet, twin wall sheet and UV cap layer co-extrusion. Other special extrusion grades are suitable for applications where severe flame retardancy requirements have to be met.
For other applications, for instance where temperature requirements are less stringent, PC blends such as PC/ABS or PC/PET may provide excellent alternative possibilities.
In those situations, where our extensive portfolio may not immediately meet your needs, contact our Technical Centre staff, to discuss the options beyond standard listings.
