- Light and Energy Transmission:
By allowing the transmittance of up to 90% of solar energy and
88% visible light, clear RPCS is an excellent glazing material for a
wide range of applications where clarity is essential. RPCS is also
available in blue, green and bronze tints to help control heat
gain and a variety of privacy patterns for obscure glazing
requirements.
- Impact Protection:
Unsurpassed by any clear glazing product on the market, RPCS is
hundred times stronger than plate glass and many times
stronger than Acrylic, RPCS sheet exhibits excellent retention of
impact strength and stiffness at elevated as well as subzero
temperatures.
RPCS a continuous use temperature of 100°C on the positive
side and -40°C on the negative side
- UV Protection:
RPCS is UV protected to give excellent durability to outdoor
weathering and to resist the degrading effects of direct sunlight
and other harmful UV sources. RPCS is most suitable for even
harsh and hot climates of the desert. It carries with it a co
extruded UV layer of 50 microns on both sides.
- Fire Performance:
Although RPCS melts under intense heat or fire it makes no
contribution to the growth of fire through flame spread. It
softens at a relatively low temperature allowing fire, smoke and
hot gases to escape, as polycarbonate is a self-venting material.
