Thermoplastics
Expanded PVC
Expanded PVC is a lightweight, rigid plastic material with a closed-cell structure, making it resistant to moisture and chemicals. It has a smooth surface that's easy to print on, cut, and shape. It's used in advertising, displays, interior design, and model making. It also provides good thermal and acoustic insulation.
Multiwall polycarbonate
Multiwall polycarbonate is a lightweight and transparent plastic material made of layered sheets with internal air chambers that provide thermal insulation and mechanical strength. It is much more impact-resistant than glass and often treated for UV protection. Its flexibility and durability make it ideal for roofing, greenhouses, skylights, and partition walls.
PMMA
PMMA (polymethyl methacrylate) is a transparent, rigid plastic known for its lightweight nature and high light transmission, even higher than that of glass. It is UV-resistant and does not yellow easily, making it suitable for outdoor use. It is used in sectors like furniture, advertising, optics, and the medical field.
