LEXAN™ 104R Polycarbonate. Transparent Clear Resin. Low Flow FDA Grade

Injection or Extrusion Food Contact Compliant Grade Added Easy Release

LEXAN™ 104R Polycarbonate Resin is a Transparent Polycarbonate Grade designed for applications requiring Food Contact Compliance, High Melt Strength, and improved Processing Efficiency. combining a Low-Flow, High-Viscosity Profile with enhanced Mold Release Characteristics, LEXAN™ 104R Polycarbonate Resin is suitable for both Injection Molding and Extrusion Processes where Product Quality and Manufacturing Consistency are Important.

One of the Distinguishing features of LEXAN™ 104R Polycarbonate Resin is its Food Contact Compliance, making it an excellent Choice for applications Involving Food Handling, Dispensing, Storage, and Consumer-Use Products. This allows manufacturers to Utilize LEXAN™ 104R Resin in Regulated applications while maintaining the Toughness and Transparency Associated with Polycarbonate Materials.

During Processing, LEXAN™ 104R Polycarbonate Resin provides excellent Melt Strength due to its High-Viscosity, Low-Flow Nature. This Characteristic supports Dimensional Stability in Extruded Profiles and Molded Components, helping maintain consistent Geometry and Part Quality throughout Production. The addition of easy Release Technology further enhances Manufacturing Efficiency by Improving Demolding performance and reducing Part Adhesion to Tooling Surfaces.

Optical performance remains a Key Advantage of LEXAN™ 104R Polycarbonate Resin. The Transparent Clear formulation delivers excellent Light Transmission and Visual Clarity, making it suitable for applications where Product Visibility, Aesthetics, or Inspection capability are Important. This enables Designers to Combine Transparency with the Mechanical Strength Expected from an Engineering Thermoplastic.

Beyond its Processing and Optical Benefits, LEXAN™ 104R Resin offers good Impact Resistance and Long-Term Durability. Components Produced from this Grade can withstand Everyday Handling and repeated use while maintaining Structural Integrity and appearance over time.

For Flame Performance, LEXAN™ 104R Polycarbonate Resin Achieves UL94 HB Classification from 0.75 mm to 3.00 mm Thickness, supporting applications where Basic Flame performance requirements are Sufficient.

LEXAN™ 104R Polycarbonate Resin is also RoHS Compliant, supporting alignment with Global Environmental and Regulatory Standards.

Typical applications for LEXAN™ 104R Polycarbonate Resin include Food Contact Containers, Beverage Dispensing Components, Transparent Covers, Extruded Profiles, Reusable Consumer Products, and Industrial Equipment where Regulatory Compliance, Clarity, Durability, and efficient Processing are required.
