FORMOSA AC2808 PC/ABS Resin

Physical Properties

• Density 23℃: At 1.16 g/cm³ (ASTM D792), it is one of the densest in the range, offering enhanced rigidity for automotive trims and heavy-duty applications.
• Shrinkage: At 3.2 mm thickness (ASTM D955), the shrinkage rate ensures minimal distortion, critical for parts requiring tight tolerances in high-temperature environments.
• Melt Flow: As measured by ASTM D1238, the higher rate at 260°C/5 kg enables high-speed molding, balancing flow efficiency with thermal stability.

Polymer Properties:

• Base Material: Polycarbonate/Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (PC/ABS)
• Key Features:
  
  • Excellent Processability and Flowability: PC/ABS blend offers good flow for fast molding and filling complex or thin-walled parts.
  • High Impact Strength: Strong toughness for parts prone to drops, using PC strength and ABS impact resistance.
  • Good Heat Resistance: Maintains properties at high temps, ideal for hot environments or near electronics.
  • Good Dimensional Stability: Ensures precise part dimensions, perfect for housings needing accurate component fit.

Applications:

The combination of good processability, impact resistance, and heat resistance makes FORMOSA AC2808 a primary choice for a variety of consumer electronics, automotive, and appliance parts.

• Electronic Housings: It is a go-to material for housings for consumer electronics such as laptop housings, mobile device enclosures, printer housings, and TV housings. 
• Automotive Interior Parts: The material’s balance of properties makes it suitable for automotive interior components like dashboard panels, instrument panels, and trim panels. 
• Appliance Housings: It is ideal for casings for small household appliances like vacuum cleaners, hairdryers, and other electronic devices where a combination of durability, heat resistance, and good aesthetics is required.
