Sabic Lexan 940A-116 PC Description

Lexan 940A is a flame retardant polycarbonate (FR PC) manufactured by Saudi Basic Industrial Company. It meets the UL 94 V-0 flame-retardant rating and is available in transparent and translucent colors for use in electronic and electrical components.

Lexan 940A PC resin is manufactured in multiple locations; the product we supply is sourced from Sabic Innovation (Nansha). Standard colors include Lexan 940A-116 (transparent with a blue tint) and Lexan 940A-701 (opaque high-gloss black).

As shown in the image on the left, Lexan 940A-116 is a transparent cylindrical pellet with a slight blue tint. Please contact us if you require a custom color.👉+86 15837933829

Sabic Lexan 940A-116 PC Advantage

Flame retardant PC, Sabic Lexan 910A PC uses a bromined flame retardant system and achieves UL94 V-0 flame-retardant rating at a test thickness of 3.0 mm, making it suitable for the production of thin-walled injection-molded parts that require high performance flame retardancy.
High transparent. Standard FR PC is only available in opaque grades, but Sabic 940A FR PC offers high transparency, At a test thickness of 2.54 mm, light transmission reaches 85% and the refractive index is 1.586, which essentially matches the transparency properties of standard polycarbonate, making it suitable for applications requiring high clarity.
Balanced mechanical properties. Sabic 940A FR PC is not only flame-retardant but also has excellent mechanical properties. The Izod unnotched impact strength at 23°C is 3204 J/m, and the flexural modulus is 2240 MPa. Its high impact resistance makes it suitable for use in the manufacture of home appliance housings, automotive parts, and mechanical components.
Good machinability. Sabic 940A FR PC has a melt flow rate (MFR) of 10 g/10 min under test conditions of 300°C and 1.2 kg, making it suitable for injection molding. Additionally, this material contains a release agent, which facilitates the production of thin-walled and complex parts.
