Features & Benefits
Superior Flame Retardant Safety
LG ABS FR530 is formulated to achieve a UL94 V-0 rating at a thin 2.0mm wall thickness. This ensures critical fire safety in enclosed electronic and medical devices, protecting both products and end-users.
Excellent Thermal Stability
With a Heat Deflection Temperature of 84°C, this ABS resin maintains structural integrity when exposed to heat during operation or manufacturing, ensuring reliability and performance consistency.
High Flow for Easy Processing
A high Melt Flow Index of 40 g/10min allows the material to fill complex, thin-walled molds effortlessly. This enhances production efficiency, reduces cycle times, and minimizes molded-in stress for higher-quality parts.
Use & Applications
- Electrical/Electronic Products Housing (e.g., chargers, power strips, connectors)
- Medical Equipment Housing and Components
