Storage & Handling
PC is extremely moisture-sensitive. Must use a desiccant dryer. Store sealed. Excessive moisture causes silver streaking and bubbles in molded parts.

Product Overview
PC + 10% GF (grade PC 9160H) adds 10% glass fibre to polycarbonate: flexural modulus 2600 MPa (ISO 178), tensile strength 65 MPa, HDT 125°C (1.82 MPa, unannealed) and UL94 V-0 at 1.6 / 2.0 / 3.2 mm. The fibre raises stiffness and dimensional stability; notched impact is 11 kJ/m² (ISO 179, 23°C), suiting stiffness-led parts with moderate impact needs.
Select against your wall thickness, assembly and service temperature; coloured grades may differ from typical values. Send grade, colour, monthly volume and destination for a quote, and request samples for a mould trial.
Applications in Detail
Electronics & LED parts
Glass fibre stiffens thin-wall housings and brackets and reduces screw-boss distortion; UL94 V-0 at 1.6 mm meets most enclosure requirements. Check impact and creep at your wall thickness before assembly.
Meter & power-tool housings
HDT 125°C and low shrinkage (0.3–0.5%) help hold assembly dimensions, suiting meter and power-tool housings that need stiffness under moderate heat.
Automotive parts
Suitable for interior brackets and sensor housings at moderate temperatures; for under-hood or oil/cleaner contact, confirm media compatibility and long-term temperature before finalising.
Frequently Asked Questions
PC+10GF or unfilled PC?
Choose 10GF for higher stiffness, lower shrinkage and V-0; choose unfilled PC for transparency or high notched impact. This 10GF shows 11 kJ/m² (ISO 179) versus 64 kJ/m² (ISO 180) for the lighting-grade PC — different methods, not directly comparable.
Does it need drying?
Yes. PC is hygroscopic: desiccant-dry at 110–120°C for 4–5 h, melt 280–320°C, mould 70–110°C. Excess moisture causes silver streaks and bubbles.
What is the flame rating?
UL94 V-0 at 1.6 / 2.0 / 3.2 mm (see the TDS on this page). Real-part performance also depends on wall thickness and geometry; validate on the finished part.
