2. Polycarbonate - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polycarbonate

   Polycarbonate is commonly used in eye protection, as well as in other projectile-resistant viewing and lighting applications that would normally indicate the use of glass, but require much higher impact-resistance. Polycarbonate lenses also protect the eye from UV light.

3. Twinwall plastic - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twinwall_plastic

   Twin-wall plastic, specifically twin-wall polycarbonate, is an extruded multi-wall polymer product created for applications where its strength, thermally insulative properties, and moderate cost are ideal. [1] Polycarbonate, which is most commonly formed through the reaction of Bisphenol A and Carbonyl Chloride, is an extremely versatile ...

4. Pressure-sensitive adhesive - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure-sensitive_adhesive

   Adhesives may be broadly divided in two classes: structural and pressure-sensitive. To form a permanent bond, structural adhesives harden via processes such as evaporation of solvent (for example, white glue), reaction with UV radiation (as in dental adhesives), chemical reaction (such as two part epoxy), or cooling (as in hot melt).

5. Self-adhesive plastic sheet - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-adhesive_plastic_sheet

   Self-adhesive plastic sheet, known in the United Kingdom as sticky-backed plastic, is wide plastic sheet or film with an adhesive layer on one side, used as a surface coating for decorative purposes. It is typically smooth and shiny, but can also come in textured varieties, in which case it can sometimes be used as a cheap alternative to veneer .

6. Adhesive - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adhesive

   There are two types of adhesives that harden by drying: solvent-based adhesives and polymer dispersion adhesives, also known as emulsion adhesives. Solvent-based adhesives are a mixture of ingredients (typically polymers) dissolved in a solvent. White glue, contact adhesives and rubber cements are members of the drying adhesive family. As the ...

7. Fibre-reinforced plastic - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fibre-reinforced_plastic

   Fibre mats are web-form non-woven mats of glass fibres. Mats are manufactured in cut dimensions with chopped fibres, or in continuous mats using continuous fibres. Chopped fibre glass is used in processes where lengths of glass threads are cut between 3 and 26 mm, threads are then used in plastics most commonly intended for moulding processes.

8. Thermoplastic - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermoplastic

   Polycarbonate (PC) thermoplastics are known under trademarks such as Lexan, Makrolon, Makroclear, and arcoPlus. They are easily worked, molded, and thermoformed for many applications, such as electronic components, construction materials, data storage devices, automotive and aircraft parts, check sockets in prosthetics, and security glazing.

9. Solvent bonding - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solvent_bonding

   Solvent bonding differs from adhesive bonding, because the solvent does not become a permanent addition to the joined substrate. [4] Solvent bonding differs from other plastic welding processes in that heating energy is generated by the chemical reaction between the solvent and thermoplastic, and cooling occurs during evaporation of the solvent ...
