RTP 300 Series Polycarbonate Compounds

Advantages
• Creep resistance
• Toughness
• Dimensional stability

Limitations
• Chemical resistance
• Fatigue endurance

Polycarbonate possesses excellent impact strength, high heat resistance and good dimensional stability. It was one of the first thermoplastics to offer these properties. Polycarbonate is resistant to water and to mineral and organic acids. It is not suitable for contact with aromatic and chlorinated hydrocarbons or strong alkaline substances.

RTP Company's EMI 330 FR Series polycarbonate compounds incorporate stainless steel fiber, glass fiber, and/or flame retardant additives. These compounds are UL recognized with a rating of V-0 @ 1/16 inch (1.6 mm).
