Static Dissipative Polycarbonate - PC350

PC-350 Polycarbonate is a plastic sheet product designed to control static electricity for a wide range of end uses. It is a premium quality polycarbonate sheet which has been coated with SciCron Technologies proprietary, clear C-350 static dissipative coating.
This unique technology prevents charge generation on the sheet surfaces, thereby controlling particulate attraction and preventing electrostatic discharge (ESD) events. This performance is permanent and totally independent of humidity. PC-350 Polycarbonate offers exceptional design versatility since it fabricates simply, is light in weight and is available in large sheet sizes.
It also exhibits excellent clarity and chemical resistance, plus superior impact resistance, flame spread properties, and bending
characteristics.

Typical application include window glazing, machine covers, and access panels for equipment in ultra-clean semi-conductor micro-manufacturing facilities and explosive environments.
PC350 prevents static charge accumulation leading to spark discharge (arcing to ground) resulting in damage to charge sensitive equipment, possible attraction of contaminants to the sheet surfaces, or possible explosion and fire.

Glass vs. GATGLASS® Polycarbonate in Mining Glazing Applications

Found what you need with us?

Our team is ready to help you out. Drop us a call today!

Glass: Traditional mining glass is brittle, heavy, and prone to breakage, requiring frequent replacement.
GATGLASS®: Lightweight, impact-resistant, and more durable in extreme conditions, reducing downtime and costs.
GATGLASS® is the superior choice because it offers unmatched impact resistance. Unlike glass, it will not shatter upon impact, significantly reducing injury risks.
Yes! GATGLASS® is monolithic and has exceptional optical clarity, surpassing laminated glass, which can develop distortions and delaminate over time.
The patented double-side coating on GATGLASS® ensures that it resists scratching and wear from windscreen wipers and harsh environmental conditions, offering comparable abrasion resistance to glass.
Absolutely. With glass, mines face long lead times, high breakage rates, and frequent replacements. Polycarbonate’s durability and availability translate to lower life cycle costs and reduced operational disruptions.
Yes. GATGLASS® meets all relevant local and international safety certifications, making it a fully compliant and reliable alternative to traditional glass.
Absolutely. GATGLASS® can be cut to size using traditional timber-cutting tools on or off-site. We can machine GATGLASS® to any shape with customer-provided drawing files or templates and can turn this around in one day.
By choosing GATGLASS®, mining operations can improve safety, efficiency, and cost-effectiveness while eliminating the challenges associated with traditional glass shortages and lead times.
