LEXAN™ PC Resin 164R

LEXAN™ PC Resin Sabic Tianjin

SABIC PC Lexan 164R General Purpose Grade

LEXAN 164R is a versatile, medium-viscosity polycarbonate resin with an internal release agent for easier molding. It offers an excellent balance of strength, clarity, and heat resistance, making it a reliable, multi-purpose engineering plastic. It is compliant for food contact in most regions but is not recommended for medical applications requiring biocompatibility.

  • Character: Medium viscosity, multi purpose polycarbonate resin with added release agent

Features & Benefits

Exceptional Impact Strength & Toughness

With its “No-Break” (NB) rating in unnotched Izod tests, LEXAN™ 164R absorbs significant force without fracturing.

High Heat Resistance

Featuring a Heat Deflection Temperature (HDT) of 127°C at 1.8 MPa, this resin maintains structural integrity under thermal stress.

Crystal Clarity with Dimensional Stability

Offering over 88% light transmission and low haze, it provides glass-like clarity while its consistent mold shrinkage (0.5-0.7%) ensures precise, predictable part dimensions every time.
