A new generation of transparent flame retardant polycarbonate material came out

Recently, NEC Corporation and Dow-Sumitomo Corporation have collaborated to develop a flame-retardant, transparent polycarbonate material - a new generation of NuCycle that meets the requirements of transparent, environmentally friendly enclosures for modern personal computers and other new electronic products.

According to reports, NuCycle was successfully developed two years ago. It consists of a blend of polycarbonate and a newly developed silicon-based flame retardant. It contains no halogen flame retardant and is highly safe, strong and recyclable. The new generation of this product has superior performance, not only meets the needs of transparent electronics, but also meets the ever-increasing safety and environmental requirements faced by manufacturing plants.

The new generation of NuCycle has a UL94V-0 flame-retardant rating. It is completely transparent. This is based on a modified silane flame retardant to achieve both transparent and flame-retardant properties. According to experts, NuCycle still maintains the safety, heat resistance and mechanical properties of its materials after recycling. Products can be made lighter, thinner, and competitive in the market. The silane flame retardant structure used is different from general silane compounds and can be finely and uniformly dispersed in the resin. The flame retardant efficiency is high, and no toxic substances are generated during combustion and processing.
