Description
The Kimya PC-FR is an amorphous thermoplastic that combines the advantages of a polycarbonate with flame retardant properties linked to the formulation. This low moisture sensitive filament has good dimensional stability, a wide operating temperature range (-80 to 105°C) with its high Tg and good impact resistance . All these properties make it suitable for a variety of demanding applications such as the production of parts in the railway and automotive sectors as well as in the electrical and electronic fields.
- Good dimensional stability
- Wide usage temperature range (-80°C à +105°C)
- Flame retardant – EN45545
- HL1, HL2, HL3 according to requirements R1 & R6 ( 3mm thickeness of injected parts)
- HL3 according to requirement R26 (1 and 5 mm thickness of FDM printed parts)
