Description

LEXAN EXL1810T polycarbonate (PC) siloxane copolymer resin is a transparent injection molding grade. This resin offers cold temperature (0 °C) ductility in combination with very high flow characteristics and excellent processability with opportunities for shorter IM cycle times compared to standard PC resin. LEXAN EXL1810T resin is a general purpose product available in transparent and opaque colors and is an excellent candidate for a broad range of 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.
