Polycarbonate sheet

Aesthet Polycarbonate Sheet Company has occupied a leading

position in domestic market, and is striving for opening up anew market abroad. Our company has introduced five advanced

production lines and use high-quality raw polycarbonatematerial and UV-resistant material. Our products are mainly

focused on solid polycarbonate sheet(polycarbonate panels)and hollow polycarbonate sheet such as multiwall and twin-wall

polycarbonate sheet. They can be found in many applicationslike greenhouses, roofing sheet and sound-insulation barrier.

Polycarbonate sheet is generally replacing glass, toughenedglass and polyethylene membrane in many fields such asagriculture, industry, public buildings and ornaments. It is a

perfect combination of lightweight, high impact strength, lighttransmission, frame-resistance, UV protection, anti-drop as well

as charming appearance.

2.) Twin wall Polycarbonate sheetMultiwall polycarbonate sheet inherits light transmission, high impact strength, UV

resistance, lightweight and thermal insulation from polycarbonate resin. Its multiple walls

and hollow structures strengthen these good performances and ensure extensive

applications.

Applications:

In agriculture, multi-wall polycarbonate sheet is an alternative for greenhouses. It has high

impact strength against rainstorm, hails, and windy weather; it is specially treated for anti-

drop, which optimizes light transmission.

Multiwall polycarbonate sheet is an ideal choice for sound-proofing wall of highway, railway

and city viaduct.

3.) Solid Polycarbonate sheetSolid polycarbonate sheet is superior to hollow polycarbonate sheet in light transmission and

impact strength. Hence, it is especially suitable for the applications where light is urgently

needed, such as lamp boxes, hood lighting, industrial shops and greenhouse.

1.) Solid polycarbonate sheets at

the top of building are built into

an entertainment venue where

people can drink coffee or play

chess

2.) Solid polycarbonate sheets

and glass match each other in

light transmission. However,

polycarbonate sheet can block

UV rays out, glass fails.

4.) Corrugated Polycarbonate SheetCorrugated polycarbonate sheets feature corrugated surface and self-supporting structure.

Self-supporting structure requires less glazing bars decreasing total load of the greenhouse and

save installation cost significantly. In contrast to flat polycarbonate sheet such as twin-wall or

solid sheets, corrugated sheet can control and adjust the light transmission by changing the

direction of the light, allowing for more sunlight for the plants in the morning and evening.

Corrugated polycarbonate sheet has optimum impact strength and durability to withstand

high wind, heavy snow and hail damage.

Corrugated polycarbonate sheets are usually designed with multiple walls. Hollow structure

enhances thermal insulation and reduces the cost of temperature control about 30% - 40%.

Why select polycarbonate sheets?Polycarbonate sheet is generally replacing glass, toughened glass andpolyethylene membrane in many fields such as agriculture, industry,

public buildings and ornaments. It is a perfect combination oflightweight, high impact strength, light transmission, frame-resistance, UV protection, anti-drop as well as charming appearance.

Clear polycarbonate sheet is as transparent as glass, but weighs onlya half. Lightweight makes it easy to transport and install.

Polycarbonate sheets, especially solid polycarbonate sheets, such asembossed and frosted sheets, have extremely high impact strength.

According to test data, impact strength of polycarbonate sheet isabout 200 times higher than the common glass, and 2 to 20 timesthe tempering glass. They are quite suitable for places where has a

high potentiality of encountering hail, high wind and storm rain.Sufficient light is an essential element of the greenhouse. Common

glass and polyethylene are easy to produce water drops on thesurface, which severely reduces light transmission and hinders plantgrowth. After special treatment, condensation will not produce on

the interior surface of polycarbonate sheet.

Where is polycarbonate sheet used in?

Versatile polycarbonate sheets have a big family. For

surface corrugations, smooth, embossed and frostedsurfaces are manufactured.Smooth surface is for highlight transmission, embossedand frosted are mainly used

in decorating properties and buildings and create acomfortable and attractive view to dull life.

For constructions, both solid and hollow sheets arewidely used all around the world. The prominent

differences between solid and hollow sheets are lighttransmission and impact strength. Solid sheets are much

stronger than hollow ones, but inferior to hollow sheet inthermal insulation. Hence, solid sheets are widely used in

lighting, skylight, helmets. Hollow sheets are relativelycheap. They are also widely used in greenhouses and

shop malls.

What is the difference between hollow

and solid sheets?Construction

Solid polycarbonate sheet is single solid layer, whilehollow sheet has at least two walls.

Thermal insulation

Hollow polycarbonate or multiwall sheet is superior tosolid sheet in thermal insulation for it traps air in its

hollow structure as an excellent thermal barrier.

Light transmissionMultiwall polycarbonate sheet is not as good as solid

sheet.

Weight

Solid sheet is heavier than hollow sheet
