Electronics PlasticsCommon Problems
When should PC/ABS be selected instead of ABS?
PC/ABS is preferred when a molded part needs higher heat resistance, impact strength, dimensional stability, or assembly-stress resistance than standard ABS.
Can PC/ABS compounds achieve flame-retardant ratings?
Yes. Flame-retardant PC/ABS grades can be formulated for electrical and electronics applications, subject to wall thickness and certification requirements.
