What Is It?
NEXXALAC™ Flame Retardant Unfilled PC/ABS Compound, meeting the fire-safety standards computer equipment housings are held to.
How It's Manufactured
A non-halogenated FR package is melt-blended into the PC/ABS resin blend on a twin-screw line.
Manufacturing Process for This Application
Laptop chassis and housing components are injection molded from the FR compound, positioned directly around a battery and processor that generate meaningful heat during normal use.
Why Polymer Choice Matters Here
A laptop houses a battery and processor generating real heat directly against the user, often on a lap or bed — flame retardancy here is both a certification requirement for the product category and a genuine safety consideration given the proximity to the user.
Why This Compound Is Suited
"Computer and Laptop parts" is explicitly listed among this grade's applications.
Nexxa Compounds is a leading manufacturer of PC/ABS compounds for laptop housing part applications in India, supplying some of the largest manufacturers across India and internationally.
