Product type
UV resistant polycarbonate is a high-performance thermoplastic known for its excellent impact resistance and transparency. It is engineered with additives that provide protection against ultraviolet light, making it suitable for outdoor applications where exposure to sunlight is a concern. This type of polycarbonate is often used in applications such as safety goggles, greenhouses, and outdoor signage.
| Material | Polycarbonate with UV stabilizers |
| Thickness range | 1 mm to 12 mm |
| Transparency | Up to 90% light transmission |
| Impact resistance | Higher than glass |
| Temperature range | -40°C to 120°C |
| Fire rating | V0 to V2 (UL 94) |
When selecting UV resistant polycarbonate, consider the thickness required for your application, as this can affect both durability and weight. It's important to specify the level of UV protection needed, as well as any other performance characteristics such as impact resistance and fire ratings. Additionally, inquire about available certifications and tolerances, especially if the material will be used in safety-critical applications.
