Good Looks, Great Performance with Resins for Consumer Devices and Enclosures

Recognizing the need for light, durable, and aesthetically pleasing electronic devices and enclosures, Trinseo offers a premier portfolio that includes EMERGE™ Advanced Resins, MAGNUM™ ABS Resins, and CALIBRE™ Polycarbonate Resins.

From TV monitors and enclosures, to smart phones and packaging to laptops and tablets, to bedside radios and large stereo components, Trinseo has proven plastics to fulfill a multitude of functional and aesthetic requirements. Whether an application needs impact strength, ignition resistance, processability, colorability, or melt flow, Trinseo is prepared to work with customers to provide solutions to the most complex material challenges.

Of special interest are our high-gloss ABS/PC resins – mainly for the front panels of TVs – and our matte-finish material for housings and enclosures. The formulation of these resins provides the characteristics that manufacturers need, including heat resistance, ignition resistance, UL ratings, and high melt flow for optimal design freedom.

Our CALIBRE™ Polycarbonate Resins and EMERGE™ Advanced Resins provide custom material solutions, as well as options for non-halogenated flame retardants and post-consumer recycled material (PCR). What’s more, they all come with the assurance of a consistent supply – no matter where in the world it’s needed.
