what is PC/ABS?
PC/ABS is a polymer that combines acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS) and polycarbonate (PC), two widely used thermoplastics in manufacturing. This blend is designed to take advantage of the strengths of both polymers, offering a balanced mix of properties suitable for various applications.
ABS is known for its toughness, flexibility, and ease of processing. It resists impact well and can be molded into complex shapes, making it popular in industries like automotive and consumer goods. However, it has limitations in terms of heat resistance and strength under certain conditions. On the other hand, polycarbonate is valued for its clarity, high strength, and ability to withstand higher temperatures. It’s often used in products requiring durability, such as safety gear or electronic housings, though it can be more brittle than ABS.
When blended into PC ABS, the result is a polymer that offers improved heat resistance and strength compared to pure ABS, while maintaining good impact resistance and processability. It’s less brittle than pure PC, making it versatile for items like luggage, appliance casings, or automotive parts. The exact properties can vary depending on the ratio of ABS to PC, allowing manufacturers to tailor it to specific needs. This blend is cost-effective and widely appreciated in industries needing durable, practical polymers.

PC/ABS Plastic Raw Material FAQs
What is PC/ABS used for?
PC/ABS is commonly used in:
Automotive interior parts (dashboards, trims)
Electronics housings (laptops, monitors)
Power tools
Appliance casings
Medical and laboratory equipment (non-implantable)
What are the main properties of PC ABS?
| Property | Typical Value Range |
|---|---|
| Impact Strength | High (better than ABS alone) |
| Heat Resistance (HDT) | ~100–120°C (some grades >130°C) |
| Flame Resistance | V-0 to HB (UL 94, depending on grade) |
| Tensile Strength | ~50–70 MPa |
| Light Transmission | Opaque (generally not transparent) |
| Melt Flow Index (MFI) | 5–30 g/10min @ 260°C (depends on grade) |
What are the advantages of PC/ABS compared to pure ABS or PC?
Compared to ABS: Improved heat resistance, impact strength, and mechanical strength
Compared to PC: Better processability, lower cost, and improved dimensional stability
Can PC ABS be used outdoors?
Standard PC/ABS is not highly UV-resistant, but UV-stabilized grades are available for outdoor use. However, for prolonged outdoor exposure, materials like ASA or PC/ASA may be better choices.
Is PC ABS flame retardant?
Some grades of PC/ABS are UL 94 V-0 rated (flame retardant), especially those used in electronics or automotive applications. Always verify the flame rating when selecting a grade.
