Features & Benefits

Superior Flame Resistance

UL 94V-0/5VA certified: Ensures safety in high-risk environments like electronics and automotive components, reducing fire hazards without secondary treatments.

Enhanced Mechanical Strength

10% glass fiber reinforced: Boosts rigidity and impact resistance (150 kJ/m² at 23°C), minimizing warpage in thin-walled parts like connectors and housings.

Optimized Processing

High flow & easy release: MVR 6.0 cm³/10 min (300°C/1.2 kg) and low shrinkage (0.4–0.6%) enable efficient molding of complex geometries, cutting cycle times.
