A high-quality power adapter should not only use high-quality internal components, but also pay attention to the material of the shell. Generally, PC, ABS, and PC+ABS are used. What are the characteristics and advantages of them? Woolen cloth? Let's find out together!
1. PC material characteristics
The PC material shell is a strong thermoplastic resin. It is characterized by high strength, high temperature resistance, good transparency, non-toxic, etc. It has good and constant electrical insulation in a certain temperature and humidity range, and is an excellent insulating material.
Therefore, PC fireproof materials are often used on the casing of power adapters.
2. ABS material characteristics
ABS material is a thermoplastic polymer material structure. It can perform normally in the environment of -25°C~60°C, and has good formability. The processed products have a smooth surface and are easy to dye and electroplate. Usually not used in power adapters, but widely used in household appliances, such as televisions, washing machines, refrigerator set-top boxes, notebook computers and other electrical appliances, the consumption is very large.
3. Characteristics of PC+ABS material
PC+ABS material is actually a synthetic material of PC and ABS. It has the excellent characteristics of both materials. It has very good processability and fluidity, good surface gloss, high strength of the material, easy to paint and match colors, and can also be used for metal spraying. , electroplating, welding and bonding and other secondary processing performance. Because the characteristics of ABS combine the characteristics of its three components, it has excellent comprehensive performance, so PC+ABS materials are widely used, and can be used in various power adapters, small household appliances, instruments and meters, etc. .
