As a specialized compounder and distributor, Shanghai Yunshan Plasticizing Co., Ltd. leverages its strategic position in Shanghai's industrial hub to provide high-performance polymer solutions. We are pleased to introduce our Covestro ET3113 PC Flame Retardant Compound, a material engineered specifically to meet the stringent safety and performance demands of modern electronic applications. This compound is designed to offer a reliable balance of flame retardancy and the inherent toughness of polycarbonate, providing manufacturers with a material that enhances product safety without compromising on durability or processability.
The core value of the ET3113 compound lies in its ability to deliver critical flame retardant properties while maintaining the excellent mechanical characteristics that make PC a preferred choice for electronics. In an industry where component failure can have significant consequences, selecting a material with verified performance is paramount. Our formulation based on Covestro's polycarbonate resin ensures consistency and quality, supporting our clients in creating safer, more reliable electronic devices and enclosures.
Product Features and Technical Advantages:
Superior Flame Retardancy: Formulated to achieve a UL94 V-0 rating, a critical standard for materials used in electronic parts, significantly reducing fire propagation risk.
High Impact Resistance: Retains the exceptional toughness of polycarbonate, providing excellent protection against physical shocks and drops, which is vital for portable devices and components.
Good Thermal Stability: Offers reliable performance across a range of operating temperatures, maintaining dimensional stability and mechanical properties.
Excellent Electrical Insulation: Inherent properties of PC provide good dielectric strength and volume resistivity, essential for insulating electronic components.
Ease of Processing: The pellet form is optimized for standard injection molding equipment, allowing for high-efficiency production cycles and complex part geometries.
Material Consistency: Sourced from Covestro, a leading producer of polycarbonate, ensuring batch-to-batch uniformity and reliable supply chain integrity.
Technical Specifications Overview:
| Property | Typical Value / Description | Benefit to Customer |
| Base Polymer | Covestro Polycarbonate | Assured quality and performance from a renowned raw material supplier. |
| Flame Retardancy (UL94) | V-0 (at specified thickness) | Enables compliance with international safety standards for electronic goods. |
| Melt Flow Rate (MFR) | Value available upon request | Indicates processability; optimal for injection molding thin-walled parts. |
| Tensile Strength | High (PC characteristic) | Provides structural integrity for load-bearing components and housings. |
| Notched Izod Impact | High (PC characteristic) | Reduces part breakage during assembly, use, and transportation. |
| Density | Approx. 1.20 g/cm³ | Contributes to lightweight final products, a key factor in portable electronics. |
Application-Specific Benefits: For manufacturers of connectors, sockets, switch housings, charger casings, and internal structural components, this compound translates into tangible advantages. It helps streamline compliance processes for safety certifications, reduces the risk of product recalls related to flammability, and extends product lifespan through its durability. The combination of flame retardancy and impact strength is particularly valuable for consumer electronics, IT equipment, and industrial control devices where both safety and reliability are non-negotiable.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ):
Q1: What is the minimum thickness required to achieve the UL94 V-0 rating with ET3113?
A1: The specific thickness required to meet the V-0 classification is a key parameter. Please contact our technical team for the exact datasheet value, as it can vary based on the final compound formulation and testing conditions.
Q2: Is this material suitable for outdoor applications?
A2: While polycarbonate has inherent UV resistance, the long-term weatherability of this specific flame-retardant compound for outdoor use should be evaluated. We recommend requesting samples for application-specific testing if outdoor exposure is anticipated.
Q3: Can the color of the ET3113 compound be customized?
A3: Yes. While standard offerings are typically in natural or black, color masterbatches can be incorporated to achieve specific color requirements. This is a customizable option available upon request.
Q4: How does this compound compare to flame-retardant ABS?
A4: Compared to FR-ABS, PC-based compounds like ET3113 generally offer significantly higher impact strength and heat deflection temperature, making them suitable for more demanding mechanical and thermal environments, though often at a higher material cost.
Q5: What injection molding processing temperatures are recommended?
A5: Standard polycarbonate processing temperatures are a good starting point, typically in the range of 280°C to 320°C for the melt. However, the optimal settings can depend on part geometry and mold design. Detailed processing guidelines are provided with the material.
Q6: Is the flame retardant system halogen-free?
A6: The specific composition of the flame retardant package in ET3113 should be confirmed. Different formulations (halogenated or halogen-free) may be available to meet various market and regulatory requirements. Please inquire for details.
Q7: Do you provide material samples for testing?
A7: Yes, sample quantities are available for evaluation and trial production runs. This allows customers to verify the material's processability and performance in their specific application before placing bulk orders.
Q8: What is the typical lead time for orders?
A8: Lead times depend on order quantity and specific formulation. For standard ET3113 compound, we strive to maintain stock for prompt dispatch. Customized orders may require additional production time.
