Polycarbonate Engineering Flat Sheet

  • Strength: Polycarbonate is much stronger than acrylic, offering up to 250 times the impact resistance of glass, making it virtually unbreakable.
  • Transparency: Polycarbonate also has good transparency (around 88% light transmission), though slightly less than acrylic.
  • Scratch Resistance: Polycarbonate is softer and more prone to scratching compared to acrylic.
  • UV Resistance: Polycarbonate can yellow over time when exposed to UV light, but UV-resistant coatings can be applied to improve durability in outdoor use.
  • Workability: Polycarbonate is more flexible and can be cold-bent without cracking, allowing for greater versatility in installation and fabrication. It’s also easier to cut and drill without breaking.
  • Cost: Polycarbonate is generally more expensive than acrylic due to its superior strength and impact resistance.
  • Weight: Lighter than glass and usually lighter than acrylic, especially in thinner sheets.
  • Applications: Used in safety glazing, protective shields, machine guards, and other high-impact applications where strength and durability are critical.
