POLYCARBONATE
Polycarbonate is a transparent thermoplastic which offers very high impact strength and high modulus of elasticity. The material has a 145°C heat deflection temperature at 264 psi, absorbs very little moisture and resists acidic solutions. These properties, in addition to good electrical characteristics, make polycarbonate an excellent choice for electrical/electronic applications. Its strength, impact resistance and transparency also make it an ideal material for transparent structural applications such as sight glasses and windows.

Main Characteristics:
- High mechanical strength
- Good creep resistance
- Transparent
- Very good dimensional stability
- Stiffness retention
- Very high impact strength even at low temperature
- Physiologically inert (suitable for food contact)
Typical Applications:
- Vandal resistant windows
- Machine covers
- Outdoor signs
- Skylights
