LEXAN™ EXL1613T Transparent Clear Copolymer Polycarbonate Resin

Unique Low Temperature -30°Celsius Ductility and UL94 HB Rated

LEXAN™ EXL1613T Polycarbonate Resin is a Transparent Polycarbonate Copolymer engineered for Precision Molding, Low-Temperature Ductility, and controlled Low to Medium Flow Processing. This Engineering Thermoplastic is designed for applications requiring a balance of Dimensional Accuracy, Optical Clarity, and efficient material Utilization, particularly in Thin-Wall and Precision Component Designs.

For applications where components are exposed to Cold Environments and Mechanical Stress, LEXAN™ EXL1613T Polycarbonate Resin delivers reliable Impact performance at -30°C. This Low-Temperature Toughness helps maintain Structural Integrity and Resistance to Cracking, ensuring stable Operation in variable Climatic and Industrial Conditions.

A Key Feature of LEXAN™ EXL1613T Polycarbonate Resin is its suitability for very Thin-Wall Molding, achieving UL94 HB performance from 0.40 mm to 3.00 mm Thickness. This enables Lightweight and Compact Part Design while maintaining Functional Durability, supporting efficient material Usage in High-Precision applications.

Processing behavior is optimized through Low to Medium Flow Characteristics, Giving manufacturers improved Control during Injection Molding. This supports stable Cavity Filling, reduced Defects such as Flash or Overpacking, and improved Replication of Fine features in Precision Transparent Components.

Another Advantage of LEXAN™ EXL1613T Polycarbonate Resin is its Contribution to improved Cycle Efficiency, enabling more stable Processing Conditions and Higher Throughput in Production Environments. This makes it suitable for High-Volume Manufacturing where Consistency and Repeatability are Critical.

Despite its controlled Flow Profile, LEXAN™ EXL1613T Polycarbonate Resin maintains excellent Optical Clarity, allowing Parts to meet both Functional and Visual Requirements. This makes it Ideal for applications requiring Transparency, Inspection Visibility, or controlled Light Transmission.

The Siloxane-Modified Copolymer Structure enhances Impact Strength and Flexibility, enabling Molded Parts to withstand repeated Mechanical Stress, Vibration, and Environmental Variation while maintaining Long-Term Durability.

From a Dimensional performance Perspective, LEXAN™ EXL1613T Polycarbonate Resin provides stable Processing Shrinkage and consistent Geometry Control, supporting Tight Tolerances, accurate Assembly Fit, and reliable Part-To-Part Consistency.

The material is also RoHS Compliant, aligning with Global Environmental and Electrical Equipment Standards.

Typical applications for LEXAN™ EXL1613T Polycarbonate Resin include Transparent Housings, Precision Optical Components, Consumer Electronics Parts, Automotive Interior Elements, and Thin-Wall Functional Designs where Clarity, Dimensional Accuracy, and Low-Temperature Toughness are required.

Overall, LEXAN™ EXL1613T Polycarbonate Resin delivers a balanced combination of Precision Processing Control, Optical Transparency, and Low-Temperature Impact Resistance, making it a reliable Solution for Compact, High-Accuracy Engineering applications.
