Application Review
Component candidates
Instrument shells, fixtures and structural mounting concepts. Define load paths, flatness and insert retention. This carbon-filled grade should not be treated as transparent PC. The reference sheet does not establish electrical resistance or a usable flame rating.
Assembly interfaces
Define mounting points, ribs, inserts, sealing faces and critical fits on the drawing. Agree which dimensions and functional features require sample approval.
Sample acceptance
Use representative parts made with the intended formulation and process. Specify the load, environment, appearance and inspection conditions that matter for the application.
Processing and Part Checks
Define load paths, flatness and insert retention. This carbon-filled grade should not be treated as transparent PC. The reference sheet does not establish electrical resistance or a usable flame rating. Follow the current processing instructions for PC WHC20. Review gate location, weld lines, shrinkage and inspection timing with the molding team before fixing production conditions.
For component production, review our injection molding service. For other resin options, browse engineering plastic materials.
Material Supply and Manufacturing Support
Nylon Plastic connects engineering plastic supply with custom manufacturing. WANHAN is our cooperating compounding factory; the photographs below show its material-feeding equipment, extrusion process and laboratory.
Grade and formulation selection
Share your current grade, application and operating conditions. We coordinate the material review and identify the matching datasheet for the formulation offered.
Quality documents for your order
Specify the TDS, batch records, inspection requirements or compliance files your purchasing team needs. The documents and acceptance criteria are agreed for the quoted material.
Support beyond resin pellets
For a finished component, connect material selection with part design, tooling and molding review. Start with the drawing, expected quantity and critical dimensions.
Cooperating Factory Management-System Certificates
The supplied ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and ISO 45001 certificates identify Guangdong Wanhan as the certified entity. Their scope concerns modified plastic granules and the related management activities; it does not certify every material grade or every finished-part manufacturing service.
Review manufacturing capabilities and quality documentation. For document approval, match the legal entity, certificate scope and quoted grade.
Frequently Asked Questions
What material does this page cover?
PC CF20 is a 20% carbon fiber reinforced PC compound supplied as pellets. The reference grade is PC WHC20. Instrument shells, fixtures and structural mounting concepts are candidates for review against the actual component requirements.
Can this grade use optical or electrical claims from another PC material?
Define load paths, flatness and insert retention. This carbon-filled grade should not be treated as transparent PC. The reference sheet does not establish electrical resistance or a usable flame rating. Use the exact-grade data and component test requirements; do not transfer a result from unfilled PC or another filler level.
Are these values a production specification?
No. They are typical reference values for PC WHC20. Agree the current grade, test conditions, acceptance limits and required documents for the order.
Do the images show the exact supplied color and finished parts?
The images illustrate resin appearance and possible component concepts. Confirm color and finish on the offered material and samples; the pictured parts do not establish suitability for your design.
What is required for a material replacement?
Identify the current resin and reason for changing it. Compare exact-grade data, dimensions, loads, temperature and environmental exposure, then validate the intended part before production.
What should I send for a quote or sample request?
Send the reference grade, application, color, estimated material quantity and required documents. For a molded-part inquiry, add the drawing, critical dimensions and acceptance requirements. A CAD file is optional for a material-only inquiry.
