ALCOM® LDX PC 1000 UV 16069 GY1080-16

Chemical Family
Polycarbonate (PC)

MOCOM Compounds ALCOM® LDX PC 1000 UV 16069 GY1080-16 is a polycarbonate base polymer filled with a special filler system and UV stabilized. It is translucent, light scattering, and has high light diffusion. This extrusion grade is suitable for use in the lighting market for lamp covers and light transparent components. Processing extrusion should be done at a melt temperature of 240-280°C and it should be stored dry and protected from light.
