Power banks consist of protective shells, interface components, batteries, and circuit boards, with the shell serving the crucial function of providing physical protection for internal components while preventing dust ingress. Given that power banks contain sensitive electrical components including batteries and circuit boards, there exists a potential fire risk from battery short circuits and circuit board failures. Flame-retardant PC/ABS alloy materials address these concerns with several distinct advantages.
These advanced materials offer exceptional flame retardant properties, achieving a VO rating that ensures flames extinguish immediately upon removal of the ignition source. They are formulated to be environmentally friendly and halogen-free, while also generating low smoke and low toxicity emissions during combustion events. When battery fires occur, the shell material actively helps slow the burning speed, significantly reducing overall fire risk.
Beyond fire safety, flame-retardant PC/ABS alloy delivers excellent mechanical properties including high impact strength and remarkable toughness. These characteristics enable power bank shells to withstand the collisions, compression, and drops encountered during daily use without cracking or damage, thereby protecting internal electrical components and extending the product's operational service life.
The material also demonstrates good temperature resistance, maintaining dimensional stability across a wide temperature range to ensure power banks function reliably under various environmental conditions. Additionally, its excellent flow characteristics facilitate easy processing and formation through injection molding, enabling the production of power bank shells in diverse sizes and shapes while enhancing both design flexibility and manufacturing efficiency.
