Lenovo Idea Pad
In the re design of the Lenovo Idea Pad U550 shell, using Zytel HTN. The Pad Idea is a very thin 15.6 inch (39.6 cm) notebook computer, weighs only 5.3 pounds (2.4 kg), thick about 1 inches (2.54 cm). So thin in a certain extent, is due to the LCD rear cover assembly and bottom cover assembly used halogen-free, flame retardant grade Zytel & reg; HTN. A back cover and a bottom cover before using polycarbonate (PC) / acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS) mixed material manufacture, use Zytel & reg; HTN, the wall thick from 1.8 mm (using the PC / ABS can reach the minimum thickness) decreased to 1.3 mm.
The rigidity of the material is one of the key requirements for the mechanical stability of the notebook computer shell, because the outer shell must protect the sensitive electronic components in the notebook computer and the LCD screen. Zytel & reg; HTN improved elastic modulus (about 17 GPA) and tensile strength (about 300 MPa) to become the preferred material for the shell of the light equipment manufacturing.
A perfect design with high quality product
The appearance of the surface thermal cycle molding technology can best represent the injection molding parts, and minimize the impact on the processing cycle.
In this way, designers can better design the desired appearance, but also can reduce the cost of components, no longer need to use the auxiliary process hidden surface defects. The use of the technology can also be a glossy surface, even the use of hard filling materials in the case of glass.
In Lenovo changed to Zytel & reg; HTN, because Zytel HTN & reg; glass transition temperature is higher (about 115 DEG C or 240 degrees F), the use of thermal cycle molding technology become possible.
Higher performance, lower cost
The drop and pressure test (for example in the outer shell of the notebook computer is placed on the weighing 25 kg (55 pounds) of the load) verify the protective Lenovo notebook computer shell. In the experience of consumer reviews, we agreed that the back when the notebook base and a machine cover from the four corners of the grabbed twisted only slightly bent and promote the development of the machine cover, LCD screen will not produce any slight change, especially so thin shell, can have this table reality is amazing.
In addition, compared with nylon 66 or 6, Zytel HTN provides better moisture resistance, and high flame retardant properties. The high performance characteristics of Zytel HTN can make a new generation of mobile devices become thinner and lighter, and the price is affordable.
