COVESTRO BAYBLEND FR3010 HF PC/ABS Resin
Covestro Bayblend FR3010 HF is a flame-retardant, high-flow PC/ABS blend, specifically engineered to meet stringent safety and performance requirements.
Physical Properties
- Density: Measured using injection-molded samples in accordance with ISO 1183-1, the density is 1.18 g/cc (0.0426 lb/in³).
- Moisture Absorption at Equilibrium: Determined at 50% RH according to ISO 62, the moisture absorption at equilibrium is 0.20 %.
- Water Absorption at Saturation: Tested for saturated samples per ISO 62, the water absorption at saturation is 0.50 %.
- Linear Mold Shrinkage, Flow/Transverse: For a 3.00 mm thickness sample per ISO 2577, the linear mold shrinkage in flow and transverse directions is 0.0050–0.0070 cm/cm.
- Melt Flow: As per ISO 1133, at a temperature of 240°C under a load of 5.00 kg, the melt flow rate is 29.5 g/10 min.
- Spiral Flow: Tested under conditions of 260°C/80°C with a 2×8 mm profile (Bayer method), the spiral flow length is 40.0 cm (15.7 in).
Polymer Properties:
- Base Material: PC ABS blend
- Key Properties:
- Flame Retardancy: One of the most critical features of Bayblend FR3010 HF is its compliance with leading flame retardancy standards.
- Impact Resistance: Despite its high flow, the material maintains good toughness.
Applications:
The balance of flame retardancy, impact strength, and excellent processing characteristics makes Bayblend FR3010 HF an ideal choice for the following sectors:
- Automotive: Lightweight interior trims, door handles, and sunroof mechanism components with flame resistance.
- Electronics: Appliance control panels, LED driver housings, and outdoor electronic enclosures with UV stability.
- Consumer Goods: Portable device casings, kitchen appliance parts, and children’s toy components (non-toxic compliance).
