Abstract
Embodiments of the present disclosure generally relate to housings for, e.g., memory devices and electronic devices, and to processes for forming such housings. In an embodiment, an article for housing at least a portion of an electronic device is provided. The article includes a first component comprising a thermoplastic and a biodegradable filler or polymer, and a second component disposed on at least a portion of the first component, the second component comprising a plurality of layers. The article has a scratch visibility load of about 200 gms or more, an electrostatic discharge static voltage of about 100 V or less, a thermal conductivity of about 0.28 W/mK or more, or combinations thereof.
Claims11
An article for housing at least a portion of an electronic device, the article comprising:
- a first component comprising a thermoplastic and a biodegradable filler or polymer, wherein the thermoplastic is present in an amount of 55 wt % to about 65 wt %, wherein the biodegradable filler or polymer is present in an amount of 35 wt % to about 45 wt %, and wherein the first component has:
- a density from about 1.05 g/cm3 to about 1.25 g/cm3;
- a heat deflection temperature (HDT) from about 140° C. to about 180° C.;
- a tensile strength of about 110 MPa to about 200 MPa;
- a flexural strength of about 150 MPa to about 200 MPa;
- and
- a notched impact strength of about 40 kJ/m2 to about 70 kJ/m2;
- and
- a second component disposed on at least a portion of the first component, the second component comprising a plurality of layers, wherein the plurality of layers comprises at least three layers, wherein each layer of the plurality of layers has a different composition,
- the article having:
- a scratch visibility load (ISO 4586-2) of about 200 gms or more;
- an electrostatic discharge (ESD) static voltage (ANSI/ESD S20.20) of about 100 V or less;
- a thermal conductivity (ISO 22007-2) of about 0.28 W/mK or more;
- or
- combinations thereof.
