| POLYCARBONATE - SIGN & GRAPHICS | |
|
|
Polycarbonates are high-molecular weight, amorphous engineering thermoplastics that have exceptionally high-impact strength over a wide temperature range. It is characterized by an excellent combination of toughness, transparency, heat and flame resistance and dimensional stability. Humidity changes have little effect on dimension or properties of molded polycarbonate parts. The insulating and other electrical characteristics of polycarbonate are excellent and they are generally unaffected by greases, oils and acids.
AdvantagesToughness – high impact strength Clarity – water clear Low Flammability Dimensional Stability
Potential Limitations Stress Cracking – susceptible Processability – requires high heat Solvent Resistance – fair UV Sensitivity
