Core Product Features & Technical Advantages:
- Superior Processability: The high melt flow rate (MFR) of 945A-116 allows for easier filling of intricate molds, reducing injection pressure and cycle times. This results in higher productivity and lower energy consumption per part.
- Exceptional Impact Resistance: Even with its high flow, this grade retains the renowned toughness of polycarbonate, providing excellent resistance to impact and notch sensitivity, which is critical for functional and safety-critical parts.
- High Clarity & Dimensional Stability: Parts molded from 945A-116 typically exhibit good transparency and maintain their shape and size under various thermal and load conditions, ensuring consistent assembly and performance.
- Good Thermal Resistance: It offers a high heat deflection temperature, allowing components to perform reliably in elevated temperature environments common in automotive, electronics, and appliance applications.
- Wide Processing Window: This grade provides a forgiving processing window, making it suitable for a range of machine settings and helping to reduce scrap rates and improve yield for manufacturers.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
-
Q: What is the main advantage of SABIC 945A-116 compared to standard polycarbonate grades?
A: The primary advantage is its combination of a high melt flow rate for easy processing of complex molds and maintained high impact strength. This balance often allows for faster cycle times and the production of more intricate parts without sacrificing durability. -
Q: Is this material suitable for food contact or medical applications?
A: The base 945A-116 grade in its natural form is a general-purpose resin. For specific food contact or medical applications, compliance must be verified with the relevant regulatory standards (e.g., FDA, USP). Specialized compliant grades are available from SABIC, and we can assist in sourcing the appropriate material for your needs. -
Q: Can this PC resin be colored or compounded with additives?
A: Yes, absolutely. SABIC 945A-116 is supplied in natural granules and is highly suitable for coloring with masterbatches or compounding with various additives such as UV stabilizers, flame retardants, or glass fibers to achieve specific performance characteristics. -
Q: What are the recommended drying conditions before processing?
A: Polycarbonate is hygroscopic. It is generally recommended to dry the granules at 120°C for 3-4 hours in a dehumidifying hopper dryer to achieve a moisture content below 0.02% before injection molding to prevent defects like splay or reduced mechanical properties. -
Q: Do you provide technical data sheets (TDS) and material safety data sheets (MSDS)?
A: Yes, we provide complete technical documentation, including TDS and MSDS/SDS, for all the materials we supply. These documents are available upon request to support your material qualification and safety procedures. -
Q: What is the typical lead time and minimum order quantity (MOQ)?
A: Lead times and MOQs can vary based on current stock levels and order size. We strive to offer flexible terms to meet diverse customer needs. Please contact our sales team for the most accurate and up-to-date information regarding your specific inquiry. -
Q: How does your company ensure the quality and authenticity of the SABIC material?
A: We source our materials through authorized channels and maintain strict quality control procedures aligned with our ISO 9001 certification. Certificates of Analysis (CoA) from the manufacturer can be provided to guarantee the material's authenticity and specification compliance. -
Q: Can you assist with processing troubleshooting or material selection for a new project?
A: While we are suppliers, our team has extensive experience with engineering plastics. We can offer general guidance on processing parameters and, leveraging our relationship with producers, help connect you with more detailed technical support for complex projects.
