Covestro Makrolon Polycarbonate Sheet offer high impact strength
Makrolon Polycarbonate products have a balance of beneficial features this includes high temperature resistance, impact resistance and optical properties position polycarbonates in between commodity plastics and engineering plastic materials. Polycarbonate is definitely a high quality material. Although it offers high impact-resistance, it has low scratch-resistance and thus a hard coating can be applied to polycarbonate eyewear lenses and polycarbonate exterior motor vehicle components. The properties of polycarbonate tend to be like those of polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA, acrylic), yet , polycarbonate is actually 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 has better light transmission characteristics than many kinds of glass. Polycarbonate carries a glass transition temperature near 150 °C (302 °F), consequently it softens gradually above this point and flows above about 300°C (57...
