XENOY™ FR Resin

Description

The XENOY alloy is a blend of semi-crystalline polyester (typically polybutylene terephthalate, PBT, or polyethylene terephthalate, PET) and polycarbonate (PC). The XENOY resin family offers good chemical resistance, great impact resistance even at low temperatures, heat resistance, and outstanding aesthetic and flow characteristics. XENOY alloys offer outstanding performance in applications that are exposed to harsh conditions, or that require a high degree of toughness.

Benefits

BALANCE OF PROPERTIES

Balanced chemical and mechanical properties - amorphous polycarbonate content provides impact resistance, dimensional stability and heat resistance, while the crystalline polyester structure provides enhanced flow and chemical resistance

LOW TEMPERATURE IMPACT STRENGTH

High level of impact strength at temperatures down to -40 °F (-40° C). Impact modification provides both low and high temperature durability.

WEATHERABILITY

Grades include UV stabilized formulations for good weatherability

LUBRICITY

Smooth part-on-part lubricity for demanding applications

GOOD TEMPERATURE PERFORMANCE

Heat performance sufficient for paint cure up to 130° C.
