PC grades meet tougher train fire standard

摘要

MATERIALS Sabic Innovative Plastics has developed new polycarbonate grades in resin and sheet form for rail seating applications to meet fire safety requirements under the CEN/ TS 45445 standard. The Saudi group's new Lex-an FST3403 PC copolymer is an injection moulding grade for train seat back shells and side covers. The grade is being offered two years before the European CEN/TS 45445 standard goes into effect.
