Polycarbonate CAS# 25037-45-0
Wide Operating Temperature Range: Polycarbonate maintains stable performance over a broad temperature range from −60°C to 120°C, making it suitable for demanding thermal environments.
Excellent Heat Resistance: With a high heat distortion temperature (130–140°C) and a glass transition temperature of 149°C, polycarbonate offers outstanding thermal stability during processing and end use.
High Thermal Decomposition Threshold: The material does not begin to thermally decompose until temperatures exceed 310°C, ensuring reliability under high-temperature conditions.
Superior Optical Transparency and Colorability: Polycarbonate provides high light transmittance of 85–90% and can be manufactured as nearly colorless, transparent products while allowing excellent coloration flexibility.
