As a specialized manufacturer established in 2020, Shanghai Wenqin Plastics Co., Ltd. is dedicated to providing high-performance polymer solutions for demanding industries. Our ASA Resin PW-978B BK Grade is engineered specifically for the harsh marine environment, offering exceptional durability and protection for critical equipment components. With a compact, efficient operation and a commitment to stringent quality management systems, we deliver reliable materials that meet the rigorous standards of global marine applications.
This product is designed to address the unique challenges faced by marine equipment, including constant exposure to UV radiation, saltwater corrosion, and mechanical stress. By choosing our ASA resin, you are selecting a material backed by a company that serves markets worldwide, from North America and Europe to Southeast Asia and Oceania, ensuring global compatibility and support.
Let's explore the key features and benefits that make ASA Resin PW-978B an ideal choice for your marine component needs.
Core Characteristics & Technical Advantages:
- Superior Weathering Resistance: The ASA polymer matrix is inherently resistant to UV degradation, preventing color fading, surface chalking, and loss of mechanical properties even after prolonged outdoor exposure. This ensures long-term aesthetic and functional integrity for marine housings, covers, and fittings.
- Excellent Chemical & Saltwater Resistance: Formulated to withstand contact with saltwater, oils, and common marine chemicals without significant swelling, cracking, or corrosion. This protects sensitive internal components from environmental ingress.
- High Impact Strength: Maintains good toughness and impact resistance at a wide range of temperatures, reducing the risk of brittle fracture from impacts or vibrations common in marine operations.
- Good Dimensional Stability: Low moisture absorption and a low coefficient of thermal expansion contribute to stable part dimensions, which is crucial for precision fittings and assemblies.
- Ease of Processing: Designed for efficient injection molding with good flow characteristics, allowing for the production of complex geometries with fine details, which is essential for sophisticated marine equipment parts.
Typical Physical & Mechanical Properties:
| Property | Test Standard | Typical Value | Unit |
|---|---|---|---|
| Density | ISO 1183 | 1.07 | g/cm³ |
| Melt Flow Rate (220°C/10kg) | ISO 1133 | 12 | g/10 min |
| Tensile Strength at Yield | ISO 527 | 48 | MPa |
| Charpy Notched Impact Strength (23°C) | ISO 179/1eA | 20 | kJ/m² |
| Deflection Temperature Under Load (1.8 MPa) | ISO 75-1/-2 | 95 | °C |
Benefits for Your Marine Applications:
- Extended Service Life: Components made from PW-978B resist environmental aging, leading to fewer replacements, lower maintenance costs, and increased operational uptime for marine vessels and equipment.
- Enhanced Reliability: Consistent performance under harsh conditions ensures that critical components function as intended, improving overall system safety and reliability.
- Design Freedom: The material's processability allows engineers to design complex, integrated parts that can replace multi-component assemblies, potentially reducing weight and assembly time.
- Cost-Effectiveness: While offering premium performance, it provides a durable alternative to more expensive engineering plastics or metals in many non-structural marine applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ):
-
What is the primary advantage of ASA over ABS for marine use?
ASA offers significantly superior UV and weather resistance compared to standard ABS, which tends to degrade and become brittle when exposed to sunlight and salt spray. This makes ASA a more durable choice for long-term outdoor marine applications. -
Can this ASA resin be used for parts in direct contact with fuel or oil?
ASA Resin PW-978B exhibits good resistance to many hydrocarbons. However, for continuous immersion or contact with specific aggressive fuels/oils, compatibility testing is recommended. We can provide guidance based on your application details. -
Is the black color UV-stabilized, or will it fade?
The BK (Black) grade of PW-978B is formulated with UV stabilizers integrated into the polymer to provide long-term color retention and prevent fading under intense sunlight exposure. -
What injection molding parameters are recommended for this material?
Typical melt temperature ranges from 220°C to 260°C, with a mold temperature between 50°C and 80°C. Specific processing guidelines are available in our technical datasheet, which we can provide upon request. -
Do you offer other colors besides black?
While PW-978B is standardly supplied in black, custom color compounding is available upon request, subject to minimum order quantities. Please inquire for specific color options. -
What is the typical lead time for an order?
Lead times depend on order quantity and current production schedule. For standard black PW-978B, we often have stock available for prompt shipment from Shanghai or Ningbo port. -
Can you provide material certifications or test reports?
Yes, we can provide Certificates of Analysis (CoA) for each batch, and other relevant test reports are available upon request, in line with our ISO9001 quality management system. -
Is this material suitable for use in potable water systems on boats?
ASA Resin PW-978B is not specifically certified for potable water contact. For applications involving drinking water, materials must comply with specific regional regulations (e.g., NSF/ANSI 61). Please consult with us for suitability assessments.
