I am designing a electronics housing for continuous service underwater (both salt water and fresh) that will be exposed to filtered UV (shallow water deployment). We are looking at a PC and PC/ABS blends but wanted to get some feedback from those who may have gone down this part before. The finished assembly will be potted with EN9 urethane and a urethane based epoxy with filler so it must allow good adhesion and be chemical compatible to these type of materials. Typical chemical contact will be water born pollutants, potential anti-fouling coating overspray, and typical plastic cleaning solutions.
