Advantages Of Polycarbonate Sheets

Time : 2025-08-07

Originally, sunrooms were all made of glass and were generally used in factories, fields, and greenhouses. Later, with the development of industry, sunrooms gradually entered the family. Those with courtyards and terraces at home like to build a sunroom for leisure. It's a place for entertainment, but the hidden dangers and defects of glass are also exposed. Fortunately, after years of material upgrades, things are very different now. As the first-generation material for sunrooms, glass has also experienced the baptism of years, from ordinary glass to tempered glass, from industrial to domestic, and is constantly updated. Nowadays, tempered glass is widely used in office buildings and industrial buildings as glass facades. Due to its high cost, there is still no way to truly popularize it in the home. In the field of domestic sunrooms, truly practical tempered glass cannot be popularized, and the defects of ordinary glass are too obvious and can only be gradually eliminated. After glass failed to become popular, a new round of Reforms began with the material, and acrylic sheets were born. At that time, acrylic sheets were considered the most likely replacement for glass because they had the same light transmittance as glass. They also possessed a certain plasticity, unlike glass, and were limited to a square shape. However, when acrylic sheets were burned by fire, they would produce flame drops, produce toxic gases, and be exposed to the sun and corroded by wind and sand. After a long time, they would turn yellow and moldy. However, due to the unique properties of acrylic sheets, they could be used for roadside floodlights, traffic signs, and other applications, and this could be considered their best use.

People started innovating again when they discovered the problems of acrylic sheets during use. Now, after continuous research and development of new products, a material that can replace glass and acrylic sheets has finally been discovered. Polycarbonate sheets inherit the light transmittance of glass and are reinforced with acrylic sheets, significantly improving their impact resistance. The surface is evenly coated with a UV coating, so even long-term exposure to UV light will prevent yellowing and mildew.

Advantages and Features of Polycarbonate Sheets:

1. Light weight and strong impact resistance

2. Excellent thermal insulation performance

3. Superb weather resistance

4. Easy to use and install

5. Beautiful appearance and rich colors

6. Unique texture and texture of the material

7. Cost-effective, economical, and energy-saving (2.1-9.2 USD/m²)

8. Excellent processing performance and flexible molding

9. Wide application range (polycarbonate sheets are widely used in exterior walls and roofs of various buildings, such as airports, gymnasiums, office buildings, conference centers, star-rated hotels, schools, agricultural greenhouses, etc.)

Times are advancing, materials are being upgraded, and the quality of life is also improving. Although polycarbonate sheets are currently the best material for sun rooms, with the development of technology, various new materials will emerge in the future.
