Features & Benefits

Exceptional Flame Resistance

It achieves UL 94 V-0 rating at thin walls (0.75–3.0 mm), preventing fire spread in electronics or enclosures. Ideal for safety-critical components like electrical housings.

High Mechanical Strength

It boasts 64 MPa yield stress and >50% strain at break, ensuring impact-resistant parts that withstand drops, vibrations, and heavy use in automotive/industrial settings.

Optimized Processing Efficiency

Low viscosity and easy-release properties cut cycle times during injection molding. Pre-dried at 120°C (2–3 hours), it minimizes defects for faster, cost-effective production.
