Overview
Pocan is a high-performance engineering thermoplastic blend of polybutylene terephthalate (PBT) and polycarbonate (PC). This combination leverages the strength and chemical resistance of PBT with the impact resistance and thermal stability of PC. Developed for demanding industrial applications, Pocan is favored for its balance of properties and processability. First commercialized in the late 20th century, Pocan has become a material of choice in sectors requiring durability under stress. Its versatility allows for injection molding, extrusion, and other common thermoplastic processes, making it adaptable to complex part designs.
Physical and Chemical Properties
Pocan exhibits a tensile strength of 50-70 MPa and a flexural modulus of 2,000-3,000 MPa, making it suitable for structural components. Its heat deflection temperature (HDT) ranges from 100°C to 140°C at 1.82 MPa load, ensuring performance in elevated-temperature environments. The material demonstrates excellent resistance to oils, greases, and diluted acids/alkalis, though prolonged exposure to strong bases or certain solvents may cause degradation. Its electrical properties include a dielectric strength of 20-30 kV/mm, ideal for insulating applications.
Main Applications
In the automotive industry, Pocan is used for sensor housings, connector systems, and under-the-hood components due to its vibration resistance and thermal stability. Electrical applications include circuit breakers, switchgear components, and LED housings where flame retardancy (UL94 V-0 grades) is critical. Industrial uses encompass pump housings, gear wheels, and conveyor system parts. The consumer electronics sector employs Pocan for laptop hinges, power tool housings, and appliance components where impact resistance and aesthetic finish are priorities.
Safety and Storage
While Pocan is generally stable, processing at high temperatures (above 300°C) may release trace fumes containing butanediol or phenol derivatives. Adequate ventilation and personal protective equipment (PPE) including respirators are recommended during machining or welding operations. Storage should maintain material integrity: keep original packaging sealed in environments below 40°C with relative humidity under 60%. Prolonged exposure to moisture (>24 hours) prior to processing requires drying at 120°C for 2-4 hours to prevent surface defects in molded parts.
B2B Procurement Guide
When sourcing Pocan, specify required certifications such as FDA compliance for food-contact applications or RoHS/REACH for environmental regulations. Technical datasheets should detail melt flow rate (MFR), impact modifiers (if any), and color stability under UV exposure. For large-volume purchases (5+ metric tons), negotiate pricing tiers with suppliers. Lead times for custom formulations (e.g., glass-fiber reinforced grades) may extend to 8-12 weeks. Consider regional availability—major producers include LANXESS, SABIC, and DuPont with distribution networks in North America, Europe, and Asia.
