What Is the Difference between Polycarbonate and Acrylic?

Polycarbonate and acrylic are both similar in the sense that they are both clear plastics.

Although they are both very stronger than glass, polycarbonate panels are actually stronger than acrylic. While acrylic is 10x more impact resistant than glass, polycarbonate is 200x more impact resistant than glass.

Acrylic is strong, whereas polycarbonate is virtually indestructible – hence why it’s often used for making police riot shields, for instance.

Polycarbonate can also handle higher temperatures than acrylic – which can be used at temperatures up to 140 degrees Fahrenheit at short bursts.

When it comes to cleaning both plastics, it’s advised to clean acrylic with warm, soapy water. However, it’s also worth bearing in mind that neither acrylic or polycarbonate should be cleaned with solvents.
