What is ABS + PC?
ABS + PC is an opaque material that is a low-cost alternative to Polycarbonate. This low-temperature material has improved strengths over its ABS counterpart, as well as mechanical and thermal properties. Known

for its toughness and rigidity, it has excellent dimensional stability. Extremely versatile, this material can be modified by the addition of glass fiber,

mineral fillers, and flame retardant. It retains colour exceptionally well so it will work fantastically with any branding your project might need.

Benefits
Good impact resistance with toughness and rigidity
Metal coating with excellent adhesion to ABS
Very good indoor light colour stability
Excellent processability and appearance
Easy Processing
Sterilization by gamma, e-beam, and EtO
Drawbacks

Medical Part made with PC + ABS
Poor solvent resistance
Low dielectric strength (not a good insulator)
Low continuous service temp. (melts easily)
Color shift due to UV exposure or certain sterilization methods
How can I use it?
ABS + PC can be used for various industries, such as industrial, medical, and consumer fields.

Industrial
Common applications for the industrial market include automotive exterior and interior components, and electrical housings.

Medical
Common applications for the medical field include housings/covers, monitor bezels, handles, caps, battery enclosures, access panels, and control knobs.

Consumer Products
Common applications for the consumer industry include computers, monitors, and business equipment housings and enclosures.
