Great Impact Resistance
The high-impact resistance makes it a favorite for engineers and architects to work on. They are very flexible and in turn, they have very high impact resistance which makes them ideal to work with.
Fire retardant
The PC hollow sheet are fire-resistant and flame retardant also. They can only catch fire at a temperature above six 630°C which makes them a very good quality of polycarbonate sheets. They are also firing retardants which means they can self-extinguish the fire. It concludes that even if the temperature is 630°C or more the fire will not spread.
Weight
The hollow polycarbonate panels are very light weighted. They are eight times lighter than the normal glass but have the same width as it. They do not require heavy external structures to support them, they support themselves. That is why they are cost-effective and do not need heavy machinery and labor.
Weather resistance
The PC hollow sheet are weather resistant. They can resist every kind of weather even if it is extremely cold or hot. That's why they are used in both interior and exterior of the building. They do not change themselves with the changes in environmental conditions.
Easy to install
The PC hollow sheet are fairly very easy to install as compared to the traditional building materials. They can be bent into different shapes and used according to the requirements.
Light conduction
The PC hollow sheet have an outstanding ability for light transmission. These panels are available in a customizable variety. The light transmission depends upon the width and thickness or size of polycarbonate sheets
What are the Applications of PC Hollow Sheet
Greenhouses
Agricultural greenhouses are said to be one of the first use of hollow polycarbonate sheets. The hollow polycarbonate sheets are now available in many varieties, twin walls, three walls, four walls, multi-wall and even honeycomb structures. They are used for different conditions, each has its own specific properties and is ideal for its suited environment conditions. Their thickness varies from 6 mm to 20 mm.
Canopies
Canopies are basically a structure suspended over a space to give shade or roof. It is a protective covering or shade. They also need light transmissions. Hollow polycarbonate sheets have an outstanding diffusion of light.They are ideal for carport canopies because of their resilient impact resistance, durability, eye-catching colors, light diffusion, environment-friendly nature, long-lasting warranty and many more characteristics. The hollow polycarbonate sheet used as the canopies usually has a thickness of 6mm-12mm.
Architectural lights
Big buildings construct and use static lighting belts to make a bright and appealing interior environment. The light pulls attention to the patterns, colors, and designs of a building. It is basically the true purpose of architecture. Lighting enhances our vision to visualize and appreciate the beautiful architecture. The hollow polycarbonate sheets are used as these lightning belts in gyms, halls, theatres and buildings with large spaces etc. Their cost is fairly high. The complex structure of hollow polycarbonate sheets such as all the multi-wall and honeycomb polycarbonate sheets are mostly used. The most common thickness is usually more than 15 mm.
Telephone booths and Garage entrances etc
Telephone booths are very small rooms or enclosed constructions having a public telephone in them to be used by people. They are enclosed because of privacy. They mostly only have space for one person. They are made of hollow polycarbonate sheets. They can be transparent and colored as well. The entrances of garages are also covered with hollow polycarbonate sheets. You may have seen underground garages in the huge buildings, they are very dark and needs light. The polycarbonate sheets are also used to provide a source of light as they have very good light conduction. Mostly the twin, four wall or honeycomb polycarbonate sheets are used with varying thicknesses of 8 mm to 15 mm.
Types of PC Hollow Sheet
Rectangular hollow polycarbonate sheet
Rectangular hollow polycarbonate sheet is the most commonly used shape of the solar panel. It got its name because its internal structure is rectangular. Rectangular solar panels, is generally 4-12mm thick, generally used in some temporary solar rooms, rain-proof eaves and other places where the requirements for the strength of the panel is not very high;Panel of medium thickness is a three-layer rectangular solar panel with a general thickness of 6-25mm. It is usually used in greenhouses in the central area where the environment is not very harsh. Its thickness can withstand the general rain and snow weather, and at the same time has a good insulation effect.
Honeycomb hollow polycarbonate sheet
The internal structure is like honeycomb shape, so it is called honeycomb solar panel. Compared with the rectangular solar panels, the strength of this kind of solar panels is higher. The thickness is generally 4-35mm. In the solar panels, it is a mid-range panel and is generally used for the roofs of commercial squares and industrial parks. The aesthetic effect of this kind of board is better than that of rectangular sunshine board.
Rhombus hollow polycarbonate sheet
The internal structure is like a rhombus. The strength of honeycomb panel is similar to honeycomb solar panel, and the thickness is generally 4-35mm. It is a mid-range solar panel used for ceilings such as commercial squares, factories, stadiums.
U-shaped lock hollow polycarbonate sheet
Referred to as the lock plate, the internal structure is also rectangular. The two sun panels are linked by a stainless steel card slot and a PC material U-shaped card strip like a lock, so it is called U-shaped locking sun panels. This kind of sun panels are generally used in government projects and high-end buildings. There are currently several thicknesses choices on the market( 8 mm, 10 mm, 18 mm and 20 mm).
PC hollow corrugated board
As the name suggests, the characteristic of this kind of sunshine board is wavy shape. It is divided into 40 type, 44 type, 80 type, 86 type according to the impassable wave height. It is widely used in factory buildings and with light weight, it reduces the load of the building.
Thickness
PC hollow sheets are available in various thicknesses, typically ranging from 4mm to 20mm. The thickness you choose depends on your specific application and requirements.
Width
The width of PC hollow sheets can vary, but common widths include 1220mm (4 feet) and 2100mm (7 feet). Wider sheets are also available for specific applications.
Length
PC hollow sheets are often sold in standard lengths such as 2440mm (8 feet) and 3050mm (10 feet). However, they can be cut to custom lengths based on your project needs.
PC Hollow Sheet Features
Light transmittance
The light transmittance of PC hollow sheet can reach up to 89%, different colors and different transmittance.which is as beautiful as glass. UV-coated panels will not produce yellowing, atomization, and poor light transmission under sunlight. After ten years, the loss of light transmission is only 6%, the loss rate of PVC is as high as 15%-20%, and the glass fiber is 12 %-20%.
Impact resistance
The PC sheet impact strength is 250-300 times that of ordinary glass, 30 times that of acrylic sheets of the same thickness, and 2-20 times that of tempered glass. There will be no cracks when falling two meters under a 3kg hammer. The reputation of “glass” and “sound steel”.
Anti-uv
The PC sheet has an anti-ultraviolet (UV) coating on one side, and an anti-condensation treatment on the other side, which integrates anti-uv, heat insulation and anti-drip functions. It can block ultraviolet rays from passing through, and is suitable for protecting valuable artworks and exhibits from damage by ultraviolet rays.
Light weight
The specific gravity is only half of that of glass, which saves the cost of transportation, handling, installation and supporting frame.
Flame-retardant
The national standard GB50222-95 confirms that the PC sheet is flame-retardant grade one, that is, grade B1. The ignition point of the PC sheet is 580 degrees Celsius, and it will self-extinguish after leaving the fire. It will not produce toxic gas during combustion and will not promote the spread of the fire.
Flexibility
Cold bending can be used on the construction site according to the design drawing, and it can be installed into an arch, semi-circular roof and window. The minimum bending radius is 175 times the thickness of the adopted sheet, and hot bending is also possible.

How to clean PC Hollow Sheet
Use a gentle detergent
Clean polycarbonate gently using warm water with a few drops of liquid detergent and a microfiber cloth. Put plenty of water in your bucket so that you can rinse the cloth frequently. This prevents any dirt and grit from scratching the polycarbonate.
Use soft materials to clean polycarbonate
Using a soft, clean microfiber cloth means that any dirt particles will be trapped in the fibers so they will not scratch the polycarbonate. Rinse out the cloth frequently.
Clean polycarbonate regularly
Depending on the application, we advise cleaning polycarbonate regularly. For a polycarbonate roof, this will mean about once or twice a year. If you notice any black or green deposits appearing, clean the panels as soon as possible or the material may become stained.
Don't use harsh chemicals to clean polycarbonate
Chemical cleaning agents such as white spirits and Windex are not recommended for cleaning polycarbonate. These harsh chemicals are not effective as they will not dissolve particles of dust and sand and as these particles are moved back and forth over the surface by your microfiber cloth, the surface will become scratched. Never use thinners, benzene or acetone as these chemical cleaning agents will soften the polycarbonate. They will also leave a permanent haze on the surface.
Don't use a pressure washer or scouring pads
You might be tempted to use a pressure washer to clean a polycarbonate greenhouse or patio roof but don't! The blast of water under high pressure will damage the surface of the polycarbonate. If your roof is very dirty, use an ordinary garden hose to rinse off any loose debris then clean the panels as described above. Scouring pads should be avoided as they will leave scratches.
Regular Cleaning
Maintaining the transparency and aesthetics of polycarbonate sheets requires routine cleaning:Gentle Cleaning Solution: Use a mild soap or a designated polycarbonate cleaner mixed with water to clean the surface. Avoid abrasive cleaners and brushes that can scratch the sheet.Soft Cloth or Sponge: Gently wipe the surface with a soft cloth or sponge. Rinse thoroughly with clean water to remove any soap residue.
Preventing Scratches
Polycarbonate sheets can be prone to scratching, so take precautions to minimize damage:Soft Bristle Brush: Before using a cloth, gently brush off any loose debris or dirt to prevent scratching during cleaning.
Microfiber Cloth: When wiping the surface, use a microfiber cloth to reduce the risk of scratches.
UV Protection
UV radiation can degrade polycarbonate sheets over time, leading to yellowing and reduced impact resistance:UV-Protective Coating: Consider using polycarbonate sheets with built-in UV protection or apply a UV-resistant coating to prevent degradation.Regular Inspection: Periodically inspect the sheets for signs of UV damage, such as discoloration or brittleness.
Repairs and Replacements
In case of damage or wear, it's essential to address issues promptly:
Minor Scratches: Use a plastic polish or a specialized scratch remover to minimize the appearance of minor scratches.Cracks or Breaks: Larger cracks or breaks might require professional repairs or replacements to maintain the structural integrity.
● Pinch the sheet and check hardness. Good quality pc hollow sheet will be harder; otherwise, the sheet will be soft, brittle, and easy to break.
● Tear off the protective film and observe sheet bubble situation. Good quality pc hollow sheet made of 100% virgin material will be with less bubbles. There will be more bubbles for pc hollow sheet made of recycled raw material.
● Observe sheet transparency. PC hollow sheets made of virgin material will be brighter and with high light transmission. PC hollow sheets made of recycled material will be darker and with worse light transmission.
● Look at the pc hollow sheet lower wall thickness. Good quality sheet is with higher thickness and more raw material usage. For large-scale projects, we can choose one sheet and measure its weight to identy the purity of the material.
● Check the flexibility. Good quality pc hollow sheet is easy for bending and no breakage.
