CARILON® Polymer DB6F1G30

CARILON® Thermoplastic Polymers are aliphatic polyketones, a revolutionary new class of semi-crystalline thermoplastics. Shell Chemical Company and its affiliates are the first to have developed a commercial process for the manufacturing these materials.

CARILON Polymer DB6F1G30 is a flame retarded, 15 percent glass-fiber-reinforced, injection molding grade with mechanical properties which classify it as an engineering thermoplastic. This high modulus grade offers a UL94 V-1 rating, high comparative tracking and high glow wire indices, all without the use of halogenated or red phosphorus flame retardants. The benign flame-retardant system used for CARILON Polymer DB6F1G30 ensures that the smoke density and toxicity are both low. Yet this grade retains the exceptional blend of properties of the base polymer, such as low moisture absorption, good toughness and high resistance to a wide range of chemicals.

CARILON Polymer DB6F1G30 is easy to process on standard injection molding equipment. Cycle times are generally short and parts show good mold definition. CARILON Polymers' low moisture sensitivity means that no conditioning of parts before assembly or use is necessary.

Applications for CARILON Polymer DB6F1G30 are found in the electrical, electronics, consumer appliance and industrial markets.
