Engineering plastics, which include polycarbonate and PC resin, are plastics that are specifically created for improved strength, temperature resistance, and other mechanical qualities.
Enclosures made of polycarbonate are common and dependable in industrial and manufacturing applications in constantly demanding conditions because the material offers high-impact resistance and dimensional stability.
Plastic lenses for eyewear, medical devices, automobile parts, protective gear, greenhouses, digital discs (CDs, DVDs, and Blu-ray), and outdoor lighting fixtures are all frequently made of PC.
A strong, translucent plastic with exceptional rigidity, strength, and impact resistance is polycarbonate. Because of its optical clarity, polycarbonate is perfect for uses including machine guards, signage, architectural glazing, face shields, skylights, and POPS.
Some of the most popular plastics used for electronic enclosures are polycarbonate and acrylonitrile butadiene styrene. The benefits of PC and ABS are combined in a thermoplastic composite. PC+ABS blends are widely used in the automotive, electronics, and telecommunications industries.
Specifically, polycarbonate is a kind of plastic. In addition to being used in eyeglass lenses, it is also utilised in CDs, DVDs, automobile lighting, and numerous more industrial uses. Because polycarbonate lenses are so robust, they make great lens materials.
The wide price range reflects the widespread use of these general-purpose polycarbonate grades in a variety of diverse industrial industries. Small consumers that purchase specialized or colorful grades.
The Global electronics polycarbonate resin market accounted for $XX Billion in 2023 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2024 to 2030.
SABIC has introduced a new grade of ULTEM resin that, according to the company, can help designers with the styling and appeal of components for consumer electronics. Additionally, according to the business, resin is roughly 25% less expensive than metal.
This polyetherimide (PEI) material has a high modulus to help prevent PVD layer cracks and a surface hardness to assist eliminate scratches in order to further improve the look.
In order to facilitate downsizing and weight reduction, it strives to enable complicated, thin-wall geometries. Potential uses include smartwatch frames, smartphone touch panel frames, and camera deco rings.
SABIC’s ULTEM Resins and Additives, the competitive consumer electronics market is well recognized for its rapid style shifts.
Customers are constantly searching for fresh materials that will deliver a standout, premium appearance for an affordable price.
We created the ULTEM DT1820EV resin in order to meet this need. Without the high costs associated with employing conventional materials like metal, it elevates component design.
Our customers can obtain outstanding aesthetics while enjoying the useful design and production advantages of a thermoplastic by utilizing the new ULTEM grade employing PVD.
