ELIX PC/ABS 5120 and ELIX PC/ABS 5130 grades

Description

Thin-walled parts design has been a target in the last years for economic and environmental reasons. Many applications for thin-walled parts can be found in different sectors such as E&E or consumer goods, where an excellent balance of flowability, toughness and rigidity is required.

In this sense, the development of the ELIX PC/ABS product line was oriented to fulfil all these requirements.
