Description

LEXAN EXL8483 is a PC/siloxane copolymer resin with medium flow, excellent low temperature impact and 80% post consumer recycle content. Limited availability and restricted color only. Higher color variability and contamination risks including black specs needs to be considered before approval for use in applications.

This material data has been provided by Sabic.

"Typical" values were obtained via a literature search. "Predicted" values were imputed via artificial intelligence technology. While we have placed significant efforts in ensuring data accuracy, "typical" and "predicted" data should be considered indicative and verified by appropriate material testing. Please do contact us if additional information on the the predicted data method is required.
All metrics apply to room temperature unless otherwise stated. SI units used unless otherwise stated.
Equivalent standards are similar to one or more standards provided by the supplier. Some equivalent standards may be stricter whereas others may be outside the bounds of the original standard.
