Bayer Makrolon Polycarbonate Flat Sheet offer high impact strength
Makrolon Polycarbonate materials give you a unique balance of beneficial features this includes high temperature resistance, impact resistance and optical properties position polycarbonates between commodity plastics and engineering plastics. Polycarbonate is a very rugged material. Though it has greater impact-resistance, it has low scratch-resistance and thus a hard coating can be applied to polycarbonate eyeglasses and polycarbonate exterior automobile components. The properties associated with polycarbonate are generally similar those of polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA, acrylic), but polycarbonate definitely is stronger, it is usable in a wider temperature range and is a bit more expensive. This plastic polymer is highly transparent to visible light and it has better light transmission characteristics than most grades of glass. Polycarbonate has a glass transition temperature of about 150 °C (302 °F), so it softens slowly above this point and flows above about 300°C (572 °F). To...
