About This Raw Material

Polycarbonate has one of the highest impact strengths among engineering plastics and can combine this with glass-like optical clarity. It retains its mechanical properties across a wide temperature range.

With flame retardant, UV stable, glass fibre reinforced and light-diffusing special types, it is used from automotive lighting to medical devices. As it is hygroscopic, drying before processing is critical.
