Lexan* 9034 + 903xxxx Sheet Product Datasheet

Description
Lexan* 9034 based polycarbonate sheet is the standard grade of Lexan sheet. Inherently high impact Lexan 9034 sheet is an excellent
candidate for glazing for economical protection against breakage or intrusion. As Lexan has better insulation properties than glass it may
contribute to lower energy costs. Lexan 9034 sheet may be thermoformed, pressure formed, cold-formed or used in flat applications.
Applicable to:
•9034* (applicable for all other uncoated Lexan grades designated with 903xxxx nomenclature)
•9034V – with improved UL rating
•9034HO – with improved optical specifications
•90316, 90317 and 90318 – “Protect-A-Glaze” with one side textured

Chemical Resistance
Lexan 9034 sheet has sufficient resistance to most mineral oils, greases, aliphatic hydrocarbons and acids under low or moderate stress
levels. Specific (application related) testing is always advised, especially in applications where the Lexan 9034 sheet will come into contact
with aggressive chemicals.

Processing
Lexan 9034 sheet can be used for thermoforming. It offers high, deep draw ratios, equal wall thickness distribution, and it can be formed
into complex shapes using standard thermoforming equipment. Sandwich type heating systems give the best results. Lexan 9034 sheet has
a forming temperature range of 350–400°F. When forming, a draft angle of at least 3° should be allowed, and post mold shrinkage of
.007–.009 in/in taken into account.

Pre-drying
It is important to ensure that Lexan 9034 sheet is free of moisture prior to thermoforming. A hot air circulating oven set at 250°F is
recommended. Pre-drying times vary from 3–24 hours, depending on sheet thickness.

Assembling / Painting
Parts made from Lexan 9034 sheet can be assembled with plastics, metals, rubber and other materials using many types of adhesive
bonding, welding and mechanical fastening techniques. Since some of these materials can cause environmental stress cracking, please
consult SABIC Innovative Plastics, for advice on specific applications. A list of approved paint systems and suppliers is available upon
request.
