Romiloy

The Advanced Engineering Polymer for Strength and Versatility

 

What is Romiloy?

Romiloy is a high-performance polymer blend of polycarbonate (PC) and acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS). This unique combination delivers exceptional impact resistance, heat stability, and chemical resistance, making it an ideal choice for industries such as automotive, electronics, medical, and industrial manufacturing. At Stephens Plastics, we specialise in Romiloy plastic solutions, ensuring that our clients receive premium-grade materials tailored to their applications.

Why Choose Romiloy for Your Application?

Romiloy is a go-to material for applications requiring durability, lightweight performance, and ease of processing. At Stephens Plastics, we recommend Romiloy plastic because it offers:

    • Superior Impact Resistance – Stronger than standard ABS and more durable than pure polycarbonate.
    • Excellent Thermal Stability – Performs in extreme temperatures without degrading.
    • Outstanding Chemical Resistance – Resistant to oils, cleaning agents, and industrial chemicals.
    • Ease of Processing – Ideal for injection moulding and complex designs.
    • Flame Retardant Options – Meets strict safety regulations for automotive and electrical applications.

Romiloy vs. Other Engineering Polymers: How Does It Compare?

Choosing the right engineering-grade thermoplastic blend is crucial for ensuring durability and efficiency. Here’s how this plastic compares:

Feature Romiloy (PC/ABS) Standard ABS Polycarbonate (PC)
Impact Resistance Excellent Moderate High
Heat Resistance High Limited Excellent
Chemical Resistance Outstanding Moderate Moderate
Ease of Processing High High Moderate
Flame Retardant Options Available Limited Available

Unlike standard ABS, Romiloy sheets offer enhanced impact strength and temperature resistance, while offering easier processing than pure polycarbonate.
