Aurora Material Solutions’ PC (polycarbonate) compounds are amorphous, thermoplastics that possess outstanding impact strength, excellent colorability, and superior heat resistance with good electrical and thermal properties, low- temperature toughness, and superior dimensional stability.

PC/AES

Polycarbonate (PC) is an amorphous thermoplastic that delivers outstanding impact strength and excellent colorability. When combined with AES (acrylonitrile/ethylene/styrene), the result is an even more durable material – one that resists fading from UV light and withstands impact without marring or scratching. It’s also lighter than PC alone, making it an ideal solution for weight reduction in finished products.

An Automotive Partner

As part of our AuroraShield™ lineup, our PC/AES compound delivers an exceptional solution for vehicle components, including dashboards, window trim and exterior surfaces in automobiles, power sports equipment and agricultural machinery. Its exceptional weather-, impact- and UV-resistance holds up to heavy use, constant sunlight exposure, and any hot or cold weather condition.

Colorability

Easy for customers to color at the press, more good parts per hour which means lower scrap, saving the company money.

Part of the AuroraShield™ Family of Products

AuroraShield™ compounds are made to deliver outdoor protection against UV fading and weathering throughout the lifecycle of your product. We test UV resistance using QUV and Xenon Arc Accelerated Weathering Tests that are performed utilizing specially

designed equipment. The test chamber simulates the effects of moisture and UV sunlight on a polymer over a given period of exposure. The QUV and Xenon Arc testing equipment can provide results in a much shorter period of time than actual outdoor weathering and attempts to replicate what can happen to materials over several months or years in actual outdoor environments.

The Possibilities Start with You

Each PC/AES compound starts with a comprehensive review of your application. Our experienced R&D team will work with you to develop a formulation that will meet your specific application needs. Our goal is to provide the highest quality products and the best customer service in the industry. We work closely with you throughout the process to meet your specific needs, from determining the formulation for the job, to assistance with colors and compound matching. Aurora Material Solutions strives to be our customers’ “first choice” in polymer compound solutions.
