The problem is that most polymer housings are not able to resist the chemicals involved in this treatment without cracking. The manufacturer was struggling to find a replacement material with excellent chemical resistance and a high flame retardant rating. Although PVC is one option, this manufacturer needed a colorable, drop-in replacement for PC/ABS.

PHTHALATES IN PLASTICS KNOWING THE FACTS Phthalates are a group of chemicals used to make plastics, and in particular polyvinyl chloride (PVC), more flexible. They are used in a remarkably wide variety of flexible PVC products found in our homes and businesses.

The company’s product engineers developed specifications that included thermal conductivity in plane from 4 to 21 W/m.K (in compliance with ASTM E1461); glow wire resistance of 850°C/0.8mm (IEC 606095-2-12); and enough dimensional stability to allow it to be overmolded directly on LED components. The material added immediate benefits including: complex designs at lower costs than metal; lighter weight; inherent corrosion resistance; adaptability for ingress protection up to IP67; high heat resistance; compliance with UL94 V-0 flammability standards; and options for either electrically conductive or insulating properties.
