Comparison with Other Materials
| Material |
Tensile Strength (MPa) |
Characteristics |
| Pure PC Sheet |
60 - 70 |
Moderate strength and excellent toughness |
| Glass Fiber Reinforced PC |
80 - 120 |
Significantly improved strength and enhanced rigidity |
| Ordinary Glass |
40 - 100 |
Large variation in strength (depending on thickness and whether it is tempered), but extremely brittle |
| Aluminum Alloy |
110 - 600 |
Strength is much higher than that of PC, but it is heavy and costly |
| Acrylic (PMMA) |
50 - 70 |
Similar to PC, but with poor impact resistance (easily brittle and breakable) |
Practical Application Significance
The tensile strength of PC sheets enables them to withstand a certain degree of tensile stress, making them suitable for scenarios that require both strength and toughness:
- In the construction field: They are used for daylighting roofs and canopies (to resist tensile loads from wind or accumulated snow);
- In the industrial field: They are applied to protective covers and equipment enclosures (to bear slight tensile forces during assembly or use);
- In the transportation field: They are utilized for subway platform screen doors and automobile sunroof covers (to withstand tensile stress caused by vibrations and temperature changes).
