A NEW HIGH FLOW COPOLYCARBONATE RESIN MEETING THE REQUIREMENTS OF THE NEW EUROPEAN EN 45545 TRAIN STANDARD

摘要

A new copolycarbonate resin has been developed that meets the Hazard Level 3 (HL3) requirements for the new European rail standard EN 45545, including the heat release, smoke density and toxicity requirements. This resin is designed for high melt flow, while retaining good practical impact properties. As such, this resin is the ideal candidate for injection molding of train seat back shells with compliance to the new EN 45545 standard. Finally, new FR technology has led to a fully halogen-free product.
