Xenoy

Brand Information

Xenoy® Resin

The XENOY alloy is a blend of semi-crystalline polyester (typically polybutylene terephthalate, PBT, or polyethylene terephthalate, PET) and polycarbonate (PC). The XENOY resin family offers good chemical resistance, great impact resistance even at low temperatures, heat resistance, and outstanding aesthetic and flow characteristics. XENOY alloys offer outstanding performance in applications that are exposed to harsh conditions or that require a high degree of toughness.

Benefits:

• Balance of Properties: Balanced chemical and mechanical properties. The amorphous polycarbonate content provides impact resistance, dimensional stability, and heat resistance, while the crystalline polyester structure provides enhanced flow and chemical resistance.

• Low Temperature Impact Strength: High level of impact strength at temperatures down to -40 °F (-40° C). Impact modification provides both low and high temperature durability.

• Weatherability: Grades include UV stabilised formulations for good weatherability.

• Lubricity: Smooth part-on-part lubricity for demanding applications.

• Good Temperature Performance: Heat performance sufficient for paint cure up to 130° C.
