S-Plastics Lexan EXRL0260 resin is polycarbonate (PC) siloxane copolymer resin is a UV stabilized high viscosity grade designed for (co-)extrusion. This resin offers extreme low temperature (-60 C) ductility and good hiding power as caplayer in combination with excellent extrusion processing characteristics. Lexan EXRL0260 resin is available in opaque colors only and is an excellent candidate for a broad range of (co-)extrusion/thermoforming applications.

| Regrind: Levels of regrind up to about 25% do not adversely affect extrusion or thermoforming in small scale tests. Regrind may be used as long as acceptable sheet aesthetics and performance can be obtained. If regrind is to be used, parts formed from sheet should be tested to assure that they will perform adequately in their intended end-use environment. Efforts should be made to avoid using contaminated regrind. |
||
| • PLEASE NOTE: Conditions were established using a down stack configuration for roll stack. | ||
| • Drying: LEXAN EXL resin must be dried before processing, even if vented barrels are used, in order to avoid material degradation )during the sheet extrusion process. |
||
| • Screw Design: LEXAN EXL resins have been successfully extruded using either general purpose or barrier type screws with compression ratios in the range of 2.5 - 3.0. Transition between feed and metering sections should be gradual, occurring over |
||
| 6 ? 8 screw diameters if possible. Screws with L/D ratios of 24:1 or greater are suggested. | ||
| • Temperature Profile: A reverse temperature profile (higher temperature settings at the feed section and decreasing toward the die) has been used successfully with this material to improve melt strength of the web between the die and rolls. |

| (1) Typical values only. Variations within normal tolerances are possible for various colors. All values are measured after at least 48 hours storage at 23°C/50% relative humidity. All properties, except the melt volume and melt flow rates, are measured on injection molded samples. All samples tested under ISO test standards are prepared according to ISO 294. |
||
| (2) Only typical data for selection purposes. Not to be used for part or tool design. | ||
| (3) This rating is not intended to reflect hazards presented by this or any other material under actual fire conditions. | ||
| (4) Internal measurements according to UL standards. | ||
