FAQs
Yes. PC-6610 is a genuine Chimei WONDERLITE® grade. The UL Yellow Card for PC-6610(f1)(a), File No. E56070, lists CHI MEI CORPORATION as the company. We supply genuine Chimei material through qualified channels and provide original Chimei documents, including ISO TDS, Process Guide, MSDS, RoHS test report and Chimei environmental protection statement. Each batch is traceable by batch number and COA.
Yes. Chimei’s environmental protection statement confirms that halogen (Br, I) and its compounds, halogen (Cl), PBDEs and PBBs are not intentionally added for PC-6610 (J01). In the TÜV Rheinland RoHS report No. 48226822n4 001, Chlorine, Bromine and Iodine were tested and all results were below the reporting limit of 50 mg/kg. Therefore, PC-6610 is considered halogen-free and does not use brominated or chlorinated flame retardants.
UL Product iQ File No. E56070 for PC-6610(f1)(a) lists Color: ALL for the flame ratings.
ANSI/UL 94:
1.5 mm: V-0
3.0 mm: 5VA and V-0
IEC 60695-11-10:
1.5 mm: V-0
3.0 mm: V-0
IEC 60695-11-20:
3.0 mm: 5VA
Please confirm the exact color and wall thickness before ordering. You can verify the current certification on UL Product iQ under File No. E56070.
Yes. Each shipment is accompanied by a batch-specific Certificate of Analysis (COA). The COA includes batch number, production date and key test results such as MFR, density, tensile strength, impact strength, color and moisture.
ISO TDS reports properties using ISO test methods, such as ISO 1133 for MFR, ISO 1183 for density, ISO 527 for tensile, ISO 178 for flexural, ISO 180/179 for impact, ISO 306 for Vicat, ISO 75 for HDT and ISO 294-4 for mold shrinkage.
ASTM TDS uses corresponding ASTM methods, such as ASTM D1238, D792, D638, D790, D256, D1525, D648 and D955.
Because specimen geometry, conditioning and test conditions differ, values may not be directly comparable. For example:
ISO MFR: 10 ml/10 min
ASTM MFR: 10 g/10 min
ISO mold shrinkage: 0.4–0.6%
ASTM mold shrinkage: 0.5–0.7%
The typical data on this page is from the Chimei ISO TDS dated January 12, 2024.
Yes. The ISO TDS for PC-6610 states “UV Stabilized.” The UL Product iQ Yellow Card also lists UL 746C f1, which indicates suitability for outdoor use with respect to exposure to ultraviolet light, water exposure and immersion. This makes PC-6610 suitable for outdoor applications and electrical appliances requiring weather resistance.
UL 746C f1 is a UL certification for materials used in electrical equipment. The “f1” suffix indicates that the material has been evaluated for outdoor use with respect to exposure to ultraviolet light, water exposure and immersion.
This means PC-6610 is suitable for outdoor applications where weather resistance is required. You can verify this on UL Product iQ under File No. E56070.
Yes. Samples are available for testing, typically [1–5 kg]. Sample cost and freight. Sample lead time: 5 working days.
Please provide your application, required color, wall thickness and certification requirements so we can recommend the correct grade and sample.
