ANTI-ABRASION OR ANTI-SCRATCH POLYCARBONATE

in News, Projects

Polycarbonate is one of our most impact resistant materials, and the combination with a high strength coating makes it an excellent glazing material for many applications.

Although it is true that we are used to defining it as anti-scratch or anti-scratch polycarbonate, in reality, we should name it as anti-abrasion polycarbonate. The fundamental difference between anti-abrasion polycarbonate and anti-scratch polycarbonate is that anti-abrasion polycarbonate can resist chafing from a soft aluminum pad or scratches produced by the common use of the material, while anti-scratch polycarbonate, as its name suggests, should not be able to be scratched in acts of vandalism with sharp or pointed elements, and therefore ordinary glass could not be considered anti-scratch either.

Abrasion-resistant polycarbonate shows much higher impact resistance than other materials such as glass, making it an anti-vandal material suitable for demanding applications such as shop windows, vehicle windows, skylights and transparent protections in general. Its resistance to scratches is much higher than that of standard polycarbonate, thanks to its hardened surface coating, maintaining an appearance similar to glass and a high resistance to breakage and abrasion.

In the following video you can see the difference between a standard polycarbonate and an anti-abrasion polycarbonate.
