LEXAN™ CXT17EX Transparent Polycarbonate Resin. Copolymer High Heat
Low Plateout, Transparent Clear. Vicat Softening Temperature of 170°C
LEXAN™ CXT17EX Polycarbonate Resin is a High Heat Copolymer Polycarbonate material engineered for applications requiring Elevated Temperature Performance, Optical Clarity, and Clean Processing Behavior. With a Vicat Softening Temperature of 170°C, this Grade is designed to maintain Stability in Thermal Environments while supporting High-Quality Part Production.
In applications where Processing Cleanliness directly Impacts Part Quality, material Deposit and degradation must be Minimized. This Grade is formulated with Low Plate-Out Characteristics, helping reduce Residue Build-Up in Molds and Processing Equipment. This supports Cleaner Production Cycles and reduced Maintenance Downtime, which is especially valuable in Continuous Manufacturing Environments.
A Key Advantage of LEXAN™ CXT17EX Polycarbonate Resin is its ability to deliver stable Optical Clarity under Heat Exposure, with Limited Yellowing during Processing and Service. This ensures that Transparent Parts maintain their Visual Quality even when subjected to repeated Thermal Conditions, supporting Long-Term Aesthetic and Functional Performance.
The material also features a Broad Processing Window, providing greater flexibility during Molding. This allows manufacturers to Adjust Processing Conditions without Compromising Part Quality, Contributing to improved Manufacturing Consistency and Operational Efficiency.
Despite its Focus on Clarity and Processing, the Resin maintains Strong Dimensional Stability, ensuring Parts retain their Geometry under Thermal Stress. This is particularly important in applications where Precision and Structural Integrity must be maintained alongside Visual Appearance.
From a Processing Standpoint, the material Flows reliably while maintaining Melt Stability, enabling consistent Reproduction of Detailed Geometries. This contributes to improved Part Quality and Repeatability, especially in High-Precision applications.
LEXAN™ CXT17EX Polycarbonate Resin is RoHS Compliant, aligning with Global Environmental Standards.
In practical use, this Grade is well suited for Transparent High Temperature Components, Optical Parts, Data Storage Components, Medical Devices, and Precision Industrial applications where Clarity, Cleanliness, and Heat Resistance are Essential.
At its Core, LEXAN™ CXT17EX Polycarbonate Resin delivers a refined combination of High Heat Performance, Optical Stability, and Clean Processing Behavior. It provides a Dependable Solution for applications requiring Clarity, Thermal Reliability, and Manufacturing Efficiency.
