Why is Polycarbonate resistant to Copper Vitriol Copper Sulfate?
Polycarbonate shows excellent resistance to Copper Vitriol Copper Sulfate due to its carbonate group structure, though it has limited chemical resistance compared to other engineering plastics.
⚠️ When NOT to use Polycarbonate
Avoid using Polycarbonate with alkalis, amines, ketones, esters, and many organic solvents. Prone to stress cracking.
