ELCRES™ CRX1414 Copolymer Polycarbonate Resin. High Chemical Resistance

Opaque, Medium Flow, High Ductility and Custom Colorable. UL94-HB Rated

LNP™ ELCRES™ CRX1414 Copolymer Polycarbonate is an advanced Engineering Thermoplastic designed for applications requiring superior Chemical Resistance combined with High Ductility. Developed within the LNP™ ELCRES™ CRX Series, this Amorphous Polycarbonate Copolymer demonstrates significantly improved Resistance to Harsh Chemicals, making it suitable for environments where conventional Polycarbonate materials may fail due to Environmental Stress Cracking. The Formulation helps maintain Mechanical Integrity while extending Service Life in Demanding Conditions.

The LNP™ ELCRES™ CRX1414 Copolymer Polycarbonate is supplied in Opaque Color options and Supports custom Coloring for Design Flexibility. With Medium Flow Characteristics, this Resin offers balanced processability for Injection Molding while preserving Excellent Impact Performance. Its High Ductility allows components to absorb Stress without Brittle failure, which is Critical for Parts Exposed to repeated Mechanical Loads, aggressive Cleaning Agents, or Industrial Chemicals.

One of the defining Advantages of LNP™ ELCRES™ CRX1414 Copolymer Polycarbonate is its ability to prevent Stress Cracking and Mitigate Crack Propagation. The Advanced ELCRES™ Copolymer Technology enhances Impact Retention and Structural Stability even after prolonged Chemical Exposure. This makes the material a Strong Candidate for applications in Industrial Housings, Medical Device Components, and Chemical contact Consumer Products where Long Term Durability is Essential.

From a Regulatory and Compliance Perspective, LNP™ ELCRES™ CRX1414 Copolymer Polycarbonate meets ROHS and REACH Requirements and carries UL94 Flame Rating options, supporting Global Market acceptance. Additionally, this Grade has passed Limited Biocompatibility Testing Under ISO 10993-5 and ISO 10993-10, broadening its potential Use in applications that require controlled Contact with Biological Environments.

Overall, LNP™ ELCRES™ CRX1414 Copolymer Polycarbonate combines Chemical Resistance, High Ductility, Flame Retardant capability, and refined Aesthetics into a Single material Solution. Its Medium Flow behavior supports Efficient Processing, while the enhanced Resistance to Environmental Stress cracking ensures Consistent Performance across a Wide Range of demanding Applications. This makes LNP™ ELCRES™ CRX1414 a Reliable and Versatile Choice for Manufacturers Seeking Long Term Performance without Compromising Design or Compliance Requirements.
