WONDERLITE PC WONDERLITE PC

WONDERLITE® Polycarbonate has an excellent transparency, high heat resistance and ultra high impact resistance.

WONDERLITE® medical PC meets the biocompatibility requirements of ISO 10993.
It is suitable for both ethylene oxide (EtO) gas and gamma radiation sterilisation.

WONDERLITE® is a polycarbonate resin polymerised using the double hydroxy compounds of BPA (bisphenol-A) and the diphenylcarbonates of carbonate compounds with the transesterification (melting) method. It is manufactured by the state-of-the-art non-phosgene melt process.

This unique, environmentally-friendly process not only uses no toxic chemicals such as phosgene, but also eliminates waste water concerns compared to traditional polycarbonate production.

Additional benefits of this 'green' manufacturing process include superior 'flowability' compared to other polycarbonates with the same melt flow index (MFI), resulting in the potential for the reduction of melt temperatures and reduced mould deposit.

Clarity, heat resistance, dimensional stability and superior impact strength make WONDERLITE® polycarbonate the best choice for a wide range of applications including:

  • Electrical components
  • Business machinery
  • Medical parts
  • Automotive parts
  • Lighting
  • Sporting & leisure goods
  • Sanitary goods

Post-consumer recycled PC is now available from CHIMEI.
