Vectra liquid crystal polymer S135 reportedly has a distortion temperature under load (DTUL) of 335°C (635°F), improved weld-line strength, and a reduced viscosity that allows it to fill walls as thin as 0.2 mm (0.008"). Can be molded at tool temperatures below 93°C (200°F) and has low outgassing levels.
