Polycarbonate PC Sheet

Properties of Polycarbonate

Polycarbonate plastics have many similar properties to acrylic. Some of the key differences include:

  • Higher cost, as much as 25% more expensive (depending on the grade)

  • Significantly stronger, with 250x the impact resistance of glass and 30x the strength of acrylic

  • Transmits 88% of light

  • Working temperature of 240 degrees, giving it a low level of flammability

  • Resists chips and cracking

  • Corrosion resistant when used in chemical applications

  • Will not crack even when the sheets are drilled in to

  • Can be formed without heating

​

Abstract Plastics Clear Polycarbonate Sheet or PC Sheet is of quality, durability and functional in outdoor applications. They are security and ballistics rated Polycarbonates. UV options 1 and 2 are great for roofing applications.

Typical Applications 

If you are in need of bullet resistant materials or materials to use in a highly caustic environment, such as in a plant that works with acidic or other potent chemicals, then polycarbonate is probably the right fit.

Polycarbonate is typically not a shiny material, but it can be polished. Although it resists cracking and chipping, it dents and scratches easily. It has good clarity. Polycarbonate is the go-to choice for bullet-resistant applications, machine guards, heavy equipment windows and security glazing. It also works well as a mould for casting projects, because of the high heat resistance, and makes a great greenhouse glass material.
