Polycarbonates are engineering thermoplastics usually characterised by an excellent combination of toughness, transparency, heat and flame resistance and dimensional stability. With the addition of a proprietary hard coat surface it is transformed into an excellent UV, scratch and chemical resistant sheet.
In addition to the inherent characteristics of a polycarbonate material, LEXAN MARGARD™ has a proprietary hard surface coating, on one or two sides, which provides a high level of resistance to abrasion, chemical resistance and weathering. Depending on the product, they are backed by a 10 Year Limited Warranty against loss of light transmission as well as coating failure and breakage. SABIC has a very diverse range of MARGARD™ products depending on your application which can add features such as Antifog; for different processing methods offer grades for flat or formability and finally, offer flame-retardant grades.
