  2. Polycarbonate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polycarbonate

    Other applications, including polycarbonate sheets, may have the anti-UV layer added as a special coating or a coextrusion for enhanced weathering resistance. Polycarbonate is also used as a printing substrate for nameplate and other forms of industrial grade under printed products. The polycarbonate provides a barrier to wear, the elements ...

  3. Twinwall plastic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twinwall_plastic

    Although single layer polycarbonate sheeting is more flexible than polycarbonate in twinwall configuration, it still retains significant advantages over alternative materials, including glass. A typical 6mm sheet has a density of 0.72 g/cm^2 [6] and a thermal insulation R value of 0.3 m^2°C/W, while allowing 80% of visible light pass through. [7]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Izod_impact_strength_test

    Scheme for the determination of Izod impact strength test results. Impact, by definition, is a large force applied for a very short time, resulting in a sudden transfer of momentum and energy, and its effect is different when the same amount of energy is transferred more gradually. Everyday engineering structures are subjected to it and may ...

  5. Fracture toughness - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fracture_toughness

    In this state, the crack will propagate by successive cleavage of the grains. At these low temperatures, the yield strength is high, but the fracture strain and crack tip radius of curvature are low, leading to a low toughness. [8] At higher temperatures, the yield strength decreases, and leads to the formation of the plastic zone.

  6. Strength of materials - Wikipedia

    The strength of materials is determined using various methods of calculating the stresses and strains in structural members, such as beams, columns, and shafts. The methods employed to predict the response of a structure under loading and its susceptibility to various failure modes takes into account the properties of the materials such as its yield strength, ultimate strength, Young's modulus ...
