Polycarbonate is a strong thermoplastic resin, almost colorless and transparent with good optical properties. PC resin can be processed into large rigid products with low molding shrinkage and good dimensional stability.
The three major application fields of PC resin as engineering plastics are glass assembly industry, automobile industry, electronics and electrical appliances industry, followed by industrial machinery parts, packaging, medical and protective equipment, etc.
PC resin is used in automotive lighting systems, instrument panel systems and interior decoration systems, as headlight covers, front and rear baffles. Medical grade PC materials can be used to make syringes, surgical masks, disposable dental appliances, etc. With the rapid development of aviation technology, the requirements for various components in the aircraft are constantly increasing, which makes the application of PC in this field also increase day by day. According to statistics, there are 2,500 polycarbonate parts used in only one Boeing aircraft, and a single plane consumes about 2 tons of polycarbonate. In the field of photovoltaics, solar panels with PC boards can reduce the weight by about half compared with solar panels using glass, and can be installed on any roof due to their lighter weight. The panels also emit 80% less CO2.
The production process of PC board is extrusion molding, and the main equipment required is an extruder. Common coil widths are 850mm, 1220mm, 1560mm, 1820mm, 2100mm. Aiming at solving the cracking problem raised by the PC sheet manufacturer with a width of 850mm, we now provides a set of economical online stress testing solutions. Only 2 sets of enlarged hand-held Polariscope is needed to conduct stress detection in the front and back sections. The polariscope can be embedded in customer＇s production lines.
