High temperature thermoplastic and polycarbonate ABS alternative

XIRAN improves the thermal characteristics of various plastics, enabling applications with high temperature thermoplastics characteristics. The Vicat/HDT of these high temperature thermoplastics can be increased with for example a 5 to 30 ºC, dependant on the XIRAN content and thermoplastic blend.

ABS is a good example: polycarbonate resin is used in ABS to get high temperature thermoplastic performance. The polycarbonate ABS blend is at this moment most commonly used when the Vicat/HDT of standard ABS is not meeting the application requirements. Polyscope offers two solutions:

1. XIRAN SM grades: a Xiran/ABS blend, targeted as polycarbonate abs alternative at a high temperature thermoplastic performing ABS. This polycarbonate ABS alternative is offered as a XIRAN SM compound.

2. XIRAN SZ as neat resin offering compounders the possibility of their own customized polycarbonate ABS alternative. XIRAN SZ is the alternative to polycarbonate resin targeting at improvement of the high temperature thermoplastic performance of ABS.
