Paintability of ELIX grades

Product / Solution
Technical support during the painting process for ELIX ABS and PC/ABS grades
Excellent paintability

Description

Our products offer excellent performance as substrates in processes such as painting, chrome plating and metallising. For painting, our ELIX ABS and PC/ABS materials feature high wettability and good adhesion, even without pre-treatment. However, factors such as the paint system and the solvents used can have a direct influence on the final quality. That’s why we provide technical support throughout the injection moulding and painting process to guarantee the best results.
