XANTAR® E PC/PET and PC/PBT

XANTAR® E is a blend of XANTAR® polycarbonate (PC) and polyethylene terephthalate (PET) or polybutylene terephthalate (PBT). These products are mainly developed for the automotive industry, both interior and exterior applications and consist of standard and special grades. Special additive and compounding technology results in a property profile for XANTAR® E, which is unique compared to other blends of polycarbonate and polyester.

It exhibits high ageing resistance and has benefits in demanding impact situations e.g. the combination of low temperature performance and weld lines. It also displays low volatility during processing (low odour) and end-use (reduced windshield fogging). Due to its excellent compatibility with other polyester components it can easily be recycled with optimal retention of properties (e.g. recycling in combination with polyester textile claddings).
