The addition of glass fibers provide improved strength and stiffness and lower the thermal expansion. Glass-Filled Polycarbonate– This glass-reinforced polycarbonate is used in many industrial applications where metals are commonly used. Machine grade polycarbonate has high impact strength, high modulus of elasticity, outstanding dimensional stability, and good electrical properties. Machine Grade Polycarbonate– This low stress polycarbonate is used in many applications that require heavily fabricated, tight tolerance parts such as electrical insulator components, manifolds, diaphragms, and semiconductor parts. AMGARD™ provides additional surface protection between cleanings and complies with applicable EPA requirements as a Treated Article. TUFFAK® GP polycarbonate has a 5-year warranty against breakage, making it cost effective for thermoformed parts and fabricated components.ĪMGARD™ Polycarbonate for Safety Shields– A transparent polycarbonate sheet formulated with a silver ion antimicrobial agent that protects the sheet surface against the growth of microorganisms such as bacteria, mold and mildew that cause stains and odors. It features outstanding impact strength and superior dimensional stability. General purpose polycarbonate sheet has a polished surface, is UV stabilized, and is often used in glazing applications. General Purpose Polycarbonate– Unfilled grades of polycarbonate exhibit glass-like transparency and extreme toughness. Polycarbonate sheet, rod, and tube are easy to machine and have excellent dimensional stability. Polycarbonate sheet thermoforms well, is easy to paint, and bonds well using solvent cements or adhesives. TUFFAK® Polycarbonate– Tough and half the weight of plate glass, allows structural applications to require less support.
