Features & Benefits

Effortless High-Precision Molding

ApecĀ® 1795’s exceptionally low melt viscosity (30 cmĀ³/10min) ensures easy filling of intricate, thin-walled molds. This reduces cycle times, minimizes injection pressure, and lowers energy consumption, boosting your production efficiency and part yield.

Superior Heat Resistance & Stability

Withstanding high continuous service temperatures (Vicat 173Ā°C, HDT 146Ā°C @ 1.8 MPa), Covestro APEC Polycarbonate 1795 maintains dimensional stability and performance in hot environments like under-hood automotive applications, preventing warping or failure.

Reliable Dimensional Consistency

Featuring low and balanced shrinkage (0.8% both parallel/normal), Apec 1795 ensures predictable, precise final part dimensions critical for tight-tolerance assemblies like bezels and reflectors, reducing post-molding adjustments and scrap.
