Description Of Extruding Polycarbonate Profiles

Polycarbonate is an advanced material. Thus, when considering polycarbonate profiles for an extrusion project, you need to ensure that your manufacturer has experience in extruding polycarbonate! And JF Products can deliver. We have years of experience both designing AND manufacturing polycarbonate.

Polycarbonate is an excellent material for plastic profiles. Polycarbonate profiles have great stiffness, toughness, impact resistance and are clear. Polycarbonate profiles have excellent color ability with a beautiful gloss finish that can mimic glass and metal. Polycarbonate profiles have very good electrical insulation characteristics, do not burn readily, and some people claim that Polycarbonate can be considered “self extinguishing.” Additionally, Polycarbonate profiles have great dimensional stability and service temperatures close to 300° F.

Extrusion Polycarbonate profiles can be used outdoors but some yellowing in clear Polycarbonate profiles can occur after years in use. Polycarbonate profiles have fair to good resistance to solvents, but may have a tendency to stress crack upon exposure to certain chemicals. Polycarbonate profiles have good stain resistance to coffee, tea, fruit juices, inks, soaps, detergents, and cosmetics.

Polycarbonate Extrusion: A Guide

Polycarbonate extrusion has unlimited applications in modern industries.

The truth is that polycarbonate extrusion offers an efficient, economical and feasible method for producing plastic products.

Some of the advantages include the following;

a) It is fast and efficient in producing continuous product shapes

Polycarbonate extrusion as a technique is vital in making it possible for you to attain efficient and faster processing of continuous product shapes.

Better still, it becomes vital when producing such products in large quantities because it means you will be able to attain and maintain uniformity.

Therefore, if you’re looking for an efficient polycarbonate processing technique for producing continuous shapes for products, then extrusion is the ultimate one.

b) Relatively cheaper than other polycarbonate tooling methods

However, it is imperative to know that most of these techniques are somewhat costly owing to the several machinery and processes they involve.

Extrusion, on the other hand, is comparatively cheap given that it does not inherently require high-end machinery and processes.

It is a basic technique which you only need to master appropriately for you to be able to attain the best results.

So in comparison to other techniques, you’ll notice that extrusion is somewhat cheaper but at the same time efficient.

c) Allows you to obtain products with complex shapes, varying thickness, and textures

What happens is that polycarbonate extrusion makes it possible for you to create products with different complex shapes.

At the same time, you can also use it to produce products that have varying textures and thickness.

In general, this gives you the liberty to come up with some of the best plastic products that suit a wide range of applications.

d) Easy to integrate with numerous additives in improving the properties of the product

Then the other fundamental advantage of this process is that you can use it alongside other additives to enhance the quality of the product.

In other words, extrusion enables you to easily mix other elements that help in improving the properties of the final product.

For instance, you can choose to add additives which enhance anti-fogging or anti-scratching properties when undertaking the extrusion process.

Other properties include fire resistance, durability as well as reducing static or friction of the material.
