Idemitsu Kosan TARFLON G1920 Hot Sale PC Resin
TARFLON G1920 is a high-performance polycarbonate (PC) resin produced by Idemitsu Kosan, reinforced with 20% glass fiber (GF20).
Physical Properties
- Density: Determined by ISO 1183 (JIS K7112), density is 1.33 g/cc (0.0480 lb/in³), a key indicator of mass-to-volume ratio for material characterization.
- Moisture Absorption: At 50% RH per ISO 62 (JIS K7209), moisture absorption is 0.130% after 24 hours (86400 sec), ensuring stability in humid environments.
- Linear Mold Shrinkage, Flow: For 2.00 mm (0.0787 in) thickness via Idemitsu Method, flow shrinkage is 0.0020 cm/cm (0.0020 in/in), critical for precise dimensional control in molding.
- Linear Mold Shrinkage, Transverse: At 2.00 mm (0.0787 in) thickness per Idemitsu Method, transverse shrinkage is 0.0060 cm/cm (0.0060 in/in), impacting part design for uniform tolerance.
- Spiral Flow: At 2.00 mm (0.0787 in) thickness via Idemitsu Method, spiral flow length is 18.0 cm (7.09 in) under 125 MPa pressure, reflecting melt fluidity during mold filling.
Polymer Properties:
- Base Material: Polycarbonate (PC)
- Reinforcement: Glass Fiber
- Modification Features:

Applications:
TARFLON G1920 is tailored for applications requiring a combination of strength, stability, and electrical safety. Its glass fiber reinforcement improves performance over standard PC, as evidenced by the data above. Here are key uses:
- Printer and Copier Parts:
- G1920 is used for structural components like frames and housings in printers and copiers. The high flexural modulus and strength provide rigidity to support mechanical movements, while the HDT of 145°C withstands heat from internal components like fusers.
- LCD Projector Parts:
- Ideal for projector housings and internal supports. The material’s thermal resistance (HDT 145°C) handles heat from lamps and electronics, preventing deformation.
- Mobile Terminal Housings (e.g., Smartphones and Tablets):
- Employed in device casings for its lightweight yet reinforced design. With a density of 1,330 kg/m³, it offers a good strength-to-weight ratio.
- Power Tool Housings:
- Suitable for electric drill or saw casings. The high Rockwell hardness (70) resists abrasion from rough handling, and electric strength (22 kV/mm) provides insulation for user safety.
- Game Machine Exteriors:
- Used for console housings and controllers. Impact strength (13 kJ/m²) absorbs shocks from drops or impacts during gaming, while gloss and transparency enhance aesthetic appeal.
