Difference between PS material and PC material
Polystyrene (PS)
Feature
Non-crystalline polymer, shrinkage after molding is less than 0.6
Low-density characteristics of the production capacity of more than 20% to 30%
Advantages
1, low cost
2, transparent and stainable
3, dimensional stability characteristics
4, high rigidity
Disadvantages
1, high fragmentation
2, poor solvent resistance
3, temperature difference
Usage
Stationery, toys, electrical supplies shell, styrofoam tableware
Polycarbonate (PC)
Feature of non-crystalline thermoplastic
Advantages 1, with high strength and elastic modulus, high impact strength, wide temperature range
2, a high degree of transparency and free dyeing
3, H.D.T. High
4, good fatigue resistance
5, good weather resistance
6, excellent electrical characteristics
7, tasteless odorless harmless to human health in line with health and safety
8, forming shrinkage is low, the size of good stability
Disadvantages Molded product design is not easy to produce internal stress problems
Use of electronic appliances: CD film, switches, home appliances shell, signal tube, telephone
Automotive: bumper, distributor, safety glass
Industrial Parts: Camera Body, Machine Case, Helmet, Goggles, Safety Lenses
In addition, PS has a light transmittance of 92% and a PC of 88%. PC toughness is many times better than PS, PS is brittle, it is easy to break off, the PC's toughness is much higher; PC thermal deformation temperature reached 120 degrees, PS was only 85 degrees. Liquidity is also a lot of difference between the two, PS liquidity much better than the PC, PS can choose a point gate, PC basically use a large gate shape.
