Polycarbonate sheets are versatile and durable thermoplastic sheets, similar to acrylic, with some key differences. Also known as Lexan or Makrolon, polycarbonate is nearly as optically clear as acrylic, yet has significantly higher impact resistance compared to acrylic. It can withstand heavy forces without cracking, chipping or breaking and is considered virtually unbreakable. It also has excellent heat resistance and is able to work under higher sustained temperatures than acrylic.
Like acrylic, polycarbonate is easy to cut, machine and fabricate. Please note that this material cannot be laser cut. Some common applications for polycarbonate include building construction, greenhouses, safety shields, industrial machine guards, electronic component panels, long-lasting outdoor displays, skylights and bullet-resistant window replacements.
