Unmatched Impact Resistance

With Izod/Charpy impact values of 65 KJ/m², Wonderlite PC-115L resists cracking from road debris or mechanical stress, reducing part failures in automotive applications.

Superior Thermal Stability

A Vicat softening temperature of 148°C and heat distortion resistance up to 142°C ensure dimensional integrity near engines or under prolonged heat exposure.

UV & Flame Resistance

UL94 V-2 flammability rating and UV stabilization prevent yellowing and ensure safety in harsh conditions, extending component lifespan.

Application

Automotive Headlamp Lenses & Housings: Wonderlite PC-115L’s UV resistance prevents fogging, while its thermal stability handles engine heat. The V-2 flame rating ensures compliance with safety regulations, making it a trusted choice for OEMs.
