ALCOM® PC740/26 UV WT1407-04LB

Chemical Family
Polycarbonate (PC)

MOCOM Compounds ALCOM® PC740/26 UV WT1407-04LB is a high heat polycarbonate base polymer with a special filler/additive system that is UV stabilized and highly reflective, opaque, and easy to flow. It is suitable for automotive and lighting applications such as light guides, reflectors, and light blocking components. During processing injection molding, the melt temperature should be between 330-340°C and the mold temperature should be between 120-140°C.
