Polycarbonate/ABS Blends (PC/ABS)

PC/ABS alloys are engineering thermoplastics based on mechanical blends of polycarbonate 90–60% with ABS 10–40%. PC/ABS combines the greater heat resistance of polycarbonate with the improved processibility of ABS. One key characteristic of PC/ABS alloys is that they can readily, and cost-effectively, be flame retarded to achieve UL 94 V-0 with phosphorus-based additives. This enables the production of halogen-free flame retarded casings for office and computer equipment.
