Polycarbonate/acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (PC/ABS) is an engineering thermoplastic created from a blend of PC and ABS.
Silicone masterbatches as a non-migrating powerful anti-scratch and abrasion solution created for styrene-based polymers and alloys, such as PC, ABS, and PC/ABS.
Advantages:
1. Silicone masterbatches are added to PC/ABS blend to significantly decrease surface scratches, improve surface gloss, and provide a better feel. They also retain the mechanical properties of the resin.
2. Silicone masterbatches restructure the surface of the PC/ABS that help to avoid any crack propagation and therefore limit the whitening and hazing effects caused by abrasion.
3. Enhance surface change in gloss and color as the result of surface scratches due to nail scratching.
Application: silicone additives(silicone masterbatch and silicone powder) are opening a door for asthetic and high-quality light components, such as vehicle spray-free high gloss grille, gear cover, trim strip, charger shell, vacuum cleaner, and other more consumer electronic shells.
