Polycarbonate - Machine Grade
Machine-Grade Polycarbonate is a transparent, amorphous thermoplastic with excellent dimensional stability. It exhibits superior impact strength and rigidity over a wide range of service temperatures and is often used for structural applications where transparency and impact strength are essential—such as lenses, manifolds, site glasses and machine guards. Machine-Grade Polycarbonate suits a wide variety of electrical applications as well because of its high dielectric strength, low moisture absorption, excellent flammability rating and resistance to acid solutions. Machine-Grade polycarbonate is manufactured from FDA approved resin.
