Clear Polycarbonate
Polycarbonate sheet, is a clear solid sheet combining impact strength and cost-effectiveness with greater impact resistance over acrylics. Humidity changes have little effect on it however standard polycarbonate can yellow over time with exposure to UV.
Polycarbonate sheet (sometimes called Lexan®, Tuffak®, or Makrolon®) is used to construct safety guards or shields around machines or food prep areas as well as hatch covers for the marine industry. It’s also appropriate for security against vandalism.
