Features & Benefits
Exceptional Impact Resistance
POLYLAC PA-717C offers 25 KJ/m² Izod Impact Strength (23°C), reducing cracks in high-stress parts like vacuum cleaner housings or tool handles. Ensures longevity in rugged environments.
Reliable Heat Stability
It can withstand temperatures up to 103°C (Vicat Softening) and 97°C Heat Distortion (annealed), preventing warping in kitchen appliances or washing machine components during prolonged use.
Optimized Molding Efficiency
A Melt Flow Index of 17 ml/10 min ensures smooth flow into intricate molds, reducing cycle times for complex designs like audio equipment or toilet seats.
Use & Applications
- Kitchen Appliances: Blenders, coffee makers (heat resistance + smooth finish).
- Vacuum Cleaner Housings: Lightweight yet crack-resistant.
- Toilet Seats: Easy-to-clean surface and structural integrity.
- Tool Handles: Ergonomically molded for shock absorption.
- Audio Equipment: Sleek, high-gloss finishes.
- Washing Machines: Durable panels resistant to steam and impact.
