ALTECH® PC A 1000/178

Chemical Family: Polycarbonate (PC)

MOCOM Compounds ALTECH® PC A 1000/178 is a polycarbonate base polymer with low viscosity, suitable for injection molding applications. It should be pre-dried in an air circulating dryer or a dry air (dessicant) dryer, depending on the moisture content. The melt temperature should be between 270-310°C, and the mold temperature between 80-110°C. The product should be stored dry, in a cool and dark environment, and at a temperature not above 30°C.
