Cold Temperature Impact PC Copolymer

How Star Plastics Helps to Develop Weatherable Outdoor Technology

Star Plastics’ Cold Temperature Impact Modified PC Copolymer material with extreme low temperature ductility combined with excellent processability, to serve applications in the outdoor electronics market.

This innovative polycarbonate copolymer is UL-recognized, REACH and RoHS compliant, and provides superior impact resistance when compared to general-purpose PC at temperatures of -40°C. Additionally, the improved flow of this material results in less stress in complex molded components, adding  to the overall part performance. This material comes in high and low flow options, is available in custom colors, and is recyclable.

Special Properties

  • Impact-Modified to Maintain Properties at -40°C
  • Elevated RTI’s & UL Recognition
  • V0/5VA FR and UV Protection
  • Non-Chlorinated, Non-Brominated
