 Makrolon® is the brand name for our polycarbon-
ate. Compared with other thermoplastics, this
amorphous material has a unique set of proper-
ties. Its special features are its high transpar-
ency, heat resistance, toughness and dimensional
stability, a high creep modulus and good electri-
cal insulation properties. Glass fiber reinforced
Makrolon® has particularly high stiffness and is
­therefore very dimensionally stable.

 Apec® is the brand name for an advanced copolycar-
bonate based on Makrolon® poly­carbonate. With its
unique combination of high heat resistance, tough-
ness, transparency, light stability and flowability, it is
unlike any other engineering thermoplastic. Worthy
of note is the high heat resistance, which, depending
on the grade, can be as high as 203 °C. This makes
Apec® particularly suitable for moldings subject to
such a high level of thermal stress that ­s tandard
polycarbonate can no longer be used.

 Bayblend® is the trade name used by Covestro AG for
its product line of amorphous, thermo­plastic polymer
blends based on polycarbonate (PC) and acrylonitrile
butadiene styrene copolymer (ABS) as well as the rub-
ber-modified polycarbonate (PC) and styrene-acrylo-
nitrile copolymer (SAN) blends. Their property profiles
can be customized by varying the composition of the
blends. The particular strengths of Bayblend® are its bal-
anced combination of heat resistance, toughness and
stiffness and its excellent processing characteristics.
