Influence of physical aging on the thermal and mechanical behaviors of glassy polycarbonate
Polycarbonate (PC) is an amorphous plastic with very high impact strength, good ductility and fair stiffness. It is very difficult to break and the material is therefore considered fracture-proof. Due to physical aging phenomenon, the mechanical characteristics of PC products can be altered. The foc...
