Overview
Polycarbonate was perfected as an engineered polymer in the mid 1950s by General Electric. The name is derived from the fact that the polymers have functional groups linked together by carbonate groups in a long molecular chain. Applications in polycarbonate are almost always those which take advantage of its uniquely high impact strength and its exceptional clarity. These unique properties have resulted in applications such as glazing, machine guards and bullet resistant windows. Many grades are available. There is a whole family designed specifically for the aircraft industry.
