SABIC Innovative Plastics Lexan® 9600 Polycarbonate Sheet
Subcategory: Polycarbonate; Polymer; Thermoplastic
Close Analogs: Saudi Basic Industries Corporation (SABIC) announced on August 31st, 2007, the completion of its purchase of GE Plastics.
Material Notes: Lexan® 9600 sheet offers improved flammability characteristics than conventional LEXAN polycarbonate sheet. It is formulated to meet the standards of UL Bulletin, Class I. Developed to meet industry flammability codes, LEXAN 9600 sheet is widely used in power tools, electrical appliances, safety equipment and aircraft components. The improved flammability and slightly higher heat deflection temperature of LEXAN 9600 sheet are accompanied by essentially the same physical, electrical, chemical and fabricating properties exhibited by standard LEXAN Sheet.
