Superior Flow for Complex Molds

Tarflon LC1500’s high melt flow rate (65 g/10min) enables seamless filling of intricate molds, reducing cycle times and minimizing defects in thin-walled or detailed designs like automotive LED housings.

Optical Clarity

Low contamination levels and 90% luminous transmittance ensure consistent light diffusion, ideal for backlit displays or automotive lighting where brightness uniformity is critical.

Toughness Meets Precision

Balancing impact resistance (15 kJ/m²) and rigidity (2.3 GPa flexural modulus), Tarflon polycarbonate withstands mechanical stress while maintaining dimensional stability in harsh environments.

Application

Automotive Lighting: Daytime running lights (DRLs) requiring high brightness and heat resistance.
Consumer Electronics: Light guide panels for LCD displays, ensuring even backlighting.
Industrial Sensors: Housings for optical sensors needing contamination-free clarity.
