ALCOM® PC 740/4 UV GY1320-04LD

Chemical Family
Polycarbonate (PC)

MOCOM Compounds ALCOM® PC 740/4 UV GY1320-04LD is a polycarbonate base polymer with a special filler/additive system that features light scattering, high light diffusion, easy flow, and UV stabilization. It is suitable for automotive, lighting, and lighting-related applications such as lamp covers, display elements, and operating elements. It is approved by GS93016 and should be processed through injection molding at a melt temperature of 270-310°C and a mold temperature of 80-110°C. For optimum performance, it should be stored in a dry and light-protected environment with the lid securely closed.
