Est. 1993, Polymer Compounders increased the products it offers to include ABS, PC, PC/ABS, ASA injection moulding engineering thermoplastics. Rapid colour matching, tailored materials, technical support, first-class quality, flexible order quantities and super-fast delivery from Durham, UK.
ABSCOM® (ABS Polymer Compounds)
ABSCOM® is our registered trade name for ABS polymer products, compounds of Acrylonitrile, Butadiene and Styrene. ABS resins are opaque, glossy, and rigid with good low-temperature properties and dimensional stability. By playing on the proportion of the main components and by adding additives such as flame retardant, heat and UV stabilisers and various pigments, we are able to deliver a range of products to suit your needs. Our ABS compound grades (ABSCOM®) are used in many industries such as the automotive, leisure and hygiene sectors.
Popular grade choices include:
More detailed data sheets for each grade can be found here.
ASACOM™ (ASA Polymer Compounds)
ASACOM™ is our trade name for Acrylonitrile Styrene Acrylate (ASA) compounds which we can offer with a range of properties and colours. ASA products are characterised by excellent resistance to weathering, both in terms of mechanical properties and colours. As such, our ASA polymer grades are widely used for leisure and outdoors applications as well as in the automotive industry. Our ASA polymer grades additionally offer exceptional weatherable properties, including gloss and colour retention. If you require something tougher that still retains the exceptional weathering performance of our ASACOM™ product range, then our PC-ASACOM™ grade S9470 will be an excellent fit for your application. Combining Acrylonitrile Styrene Acrylate properties with the strength benefits of polycarbonate.

PC-ABSCOM™ (PC/ABS Polymer Compounds)
Our PC-ABSCOM™ products are blends of Polycarbonate and ABS. By playing on the proportion of the main components and by adding additives such as flame retardant, heat, UV stabilisers and pigments, we are able to deliver a range of products to suit your needs. The use of PC ABS resins is recommended for thin-wall applications. Our PC/ABS compound grades (PC-ABSCOM) are frequently used in the automotive industry.

PC-COM™ (Polycarbonate Polymer Compounds)
PC-COM™ is our trade name for polycarbonate products which we can offer with a range of properties and colours. Polycarbonate products are characterised by high impact strength and good temperature resistance. The resins can be opaque or transparent. Our polycarbonate compounds (PC-COM) are used mainly in the automotive and lighting industries. Popular polycarbonate polymer choices for these types of applications include our: PC 422 and PC 415 grades.

Notoxicom® (Halogen and Aryl Ester free flame retardant polymers compounds)
Notoxicom® is our registered tradename for specialist halogen and aryl ester-free flame retardant polymers. What makes these materials so special is that they retain industry-leading performance, whilst being much less toxic products. Within this range, we have polymers to suit many applications, from battery casings to state-of-the-art medical devices. Over time it is expected that the Notoxicom® family of products will grow further to support the innovation of our customers. Currently, we have two main grades within the range to choose from; they are Notoxicom® B6000 (FR PC/ABS) and Notoxicom® S6000 (FR PC/ASA).
