ELCRES™ CRX1314T Resin Transparent Clear High Optical Thin Wall

Medium Flow, Low Temperature Ductility & Thin Wall Transparency

LNP ELCRES™ CRX1314T PC Copolymer resin is engineered for applications requiring High Optical Clarity, Chemical Resistance, and Thin Wall Precision. This transparent polycarbonate copolymer combines medium flow characteristics with excellent light transmission, making it suitable for components where both visual performance and durability are essential. Its formulation supports consistent molding while maintaining Optical Transparency and Structural Integrity.

Achieving clarity without compromising durability is often a challenge in transparent materials. Many conventional resins may deliver good optics but struggle under chemical exposure or repeated use. This grade addresses that gap by integrating enhanced chemical resistance with stable mechanical performance, ensuring long-term reliability in demanding environments requiring Optical Stability.

LNP ELCRES™ CRX1314T PC Copolymer resin is specifically optimized for thin-wall applications where high optical quality is critical. It delivers approximately 89% light transmission at 1.0 mm thickness with only 2% haze (ASTM D1003), enabling clear visibility and minimal distortion. These properties make it particularly suitable for Precision Transparent Components and High Visual Quality Applications.

Performance stability is maintained even under challenging environmental conditions. The material exhibits low-temperature ductility down to -30°C, allowing it to resist cracking and brittle failure in cold environments. This ensures consistent performance in applications exposed to Thermal Cycling and Low Temperature Stress Conditions.

LNP ELCRES™ CRX1314T PC Copolymer resin also provides excellent resistance to harsh disinfecting chemicals such as quaternary ammonium compounds, alcohols, and peroxides. This helps extend component lifespan and reduces the risk of premature failure due to chemical exposure. It is rated UL94 HB from 0.75 mm to 3.00 mm thickness, confirming its suitability for General Purpose Flame Requirements, and it is also RoHS Compliant, supporting Global Environmental Standards.

Additional technical advantages include Laser Welding Capability and Near-Infrared (IR) Transmission properties, enabling advanced assembly techniques and integration into optical systems. These features support more complex product designs requiring both Transparency and Functional Integration.

LNP ELCRES™ CRX1314T PC Copolymer resin ultimately delivers a balanced combination of Optical Performance, Chemical Resistance, and Mechanical Reliability. With its high transmission, low haze, low-temperature durability, UL94 HB rating, and RoHS compliance, it stands as a strong material choice for modern thin-wall applications demanding High Clarity and Long-Term Performance.
