 Covestro Makrolon WB1239 PC pellet Description 

Makrolon WB1239 is a food grade polycarbonate resin pellet (PC material) manufactured by Covestro AG. It offers excellent transparency and impact resistance. Through branched modification, it effectively enhances the processability of PC material, providing advantages in thick-walled product manufacturing. WB1239 PC is suitable for producing water buckets of 20 liters and above.

Covestro Makrolon WB1239 PC Advantage

  • Food grade PC material, Makrolon WB1239 PC meets food safety standards and complies with the relevant requirements of FDA 21 CFR 177.1580 and EU 10/2011.[1] It is particularly suitable for the production of large drinking water containers made by blow molding or extrusion, and offers excellent food safety performance.
  • Excellent machinability, Makrolon WB1239 PC material employs a branched processing method, enhancing the material's moldability and improving processing conditions for thick-walled polycarbonate products. Under test conditions of 300°C and 1.2kg, this material exhibits a melt flow index (MFI or MVR) of 2.5g/10min, indicating slower flow characteristics. It is suitable for manufacturing thick-walled products.
  • Excellent mechanical properties. Covestro WB1239 polycarbonate resin pellets achieve an impact strength of 75 kJ/m² in the notched Charpy test at 23°C and 3 mm. Even under extreme low-temperature conditions of -30°C, it maintains a strength of 20 kJ/m², making it suitable for applications demanding high impact resistance, such as drinking water containers.
