Polycarbonate Grades

Polycarbonate (PC) is a transparent, high impact-resistant material known for its excellent dimensional stability and rigidity. It offers high tensile strength, chemical resistance, and self-extinguishing properties, making it suitable for a wide range of applications and industries.

Polycarbonate combines outstanding toughness with the ability to perform in both low and high-temperature environments. It can be formulated to meet the stringent requirements of industrial component manufacturers as well as aerospace and military applications. Flame-retardent grades are ideal for electrical and electronic devices, including switchgear covers, current-carrying components, and thermoformed equipment housings.

In architectural applications polycarbonate is used for covered walkways, barrel vaults, bus shelters and glazing. Bullet resistant polycarbonate is commonly used for store windows and is available. Additionally, polycarbonate is available with coatings that provide UV stability, scratch resistance, and more. An FDA-compliant grade is also available for specific uses.
