Polycarbonate sheet combines high impact and temperature resistance with
optical clarity and can be utilized for secondary glazing behind existing
glazing for economical protection against breakage or intrusion. Polycarbonate
sheet can be cut, sawn, drilled and milled by using standard workshop equipment
without the risk of cracking and breakage and is therefore an excellent
candidate for fabricating a wide range of indoor applications such as machine
guards etc. Polycarbonate sheet can be easily thermoformed into complex parts
while retaining its excellent properties necessary for demanding applications
such as vandal proof street furniture. Polycarbonate sheet may be decorated
using a wide variety of modern techniques such as painting and screen printing.
Unlike most thermoplastics, polycarbonate can undergo large plastic
deformations without cracking or breaking. As a result, it can be processed and
formed at room temperature using sheet metal techniques, such as forming bends
on a brake. Even for sharp angle bends with a tight radius, no heating is
generally necessary. This makes it valuable in prototyping applications where
transparent or electrically non-conductive parts are needed, which cannot be
made from sheet metal Light transmission Transparent Polycarbonate sheet have
excellent light transmission, dependent of thickness between 84 - 87%. Fire
performance Polycarbonate sheet has good fire behavior characteristics. Lexan
sheet does not contribute significantly to the spread of fire or to the
generation of toxic gases. For details please contact your local sales office.
