News - Material properties of polycarbonate sheet

Wear resistance: PC board after anti-ultraviolet coating treatment, the wear resistance can be increased several times,Similar to glass. Hot forming can be cold-bent into a certain arc without cracks,And can be cut or drilled. Anti-theft,The gun-proof PC can be pressed together with glass to form a safety window for use in hospitals, schools, libraries,Banks, embassies and prisons, where glass can improve the hardness and wear resistance of the board.PC can also be laminated with other PC layers or acrylates for traditional security applications.

Anti-ultraviolet: It can prevent super ultraviolet rays,Only the surface of certain single-layer boards turns yellow or becomes hazy under long-term sunlight.It is also suitable for low temperature resistant materials. PC board has excellent.heat insulation performance. Under the same thickness, the heat insulation performance of PC board is about 16% higher than that of glass, which can effectively block the transmission of heat insulation energy.Whether to keep warm in winter or to prevent the intrusion of heat in summer,PC boards can effectively reduce building energy consumption and save energy.

Anti-combustion performance: PC board has good flame retardancy and does not produce toxic gas when burned.Its smoke concentration is lower than that of wood and paper, and it is determined to be a first-class flame-retardant material.Comply with environmental protection standards. After 30s of burning sample, its burning length does not exceed 25mm,When the hot air reaches 467°C, flammable gas is decomposed. Therefore, after relevant determinations,
It is considered that its fire protection performance is qualified.

Resistance to chemical substances: No reaction to acid, alcohol, fruit juice, and beverages;It also has certain resistance to gasoline and kerosene,There will be no cracks or loss of light transmittance within 48 hours of contact.However, it has poor chemical resistance to certain chemicals (such as amines, esters, halogenated hydrocarbons, paint thinners).

Light weight: The density of polycarbonate is about 1.29/cm3, which is half lighter than glass.If made into a hollow PC board, its quality is 1/3 of that of plexiglass,It is about 1/15 to 1/12 of glass. Hollow PC board has excellent stiffness,Can be used as a skeleton component. The lightweight of PC board makes construction safer and more convenient,It can greatly save shipping and construction time and costs.
