Exceptional Impact Resistance: Offers extremely high impact strength, approximately 200-300 times that of glass of the same thickness and over 30 times that of acrylic sheets. It is often called "unbreakable glass" or "glazing steel."

Excellent Optical Properties: Features high light transmittance of up to 89%, comparable to glass. When coated with a UV-resistant layer, it effectively blocks ultraviolet light transmission and prevents the sheet from yellowing and hazing due to exposure to sunlight.

Lightweight: Has a low density, only about half that of glass, which reduces transportation, handling, and installation costs, and places less load on supporting structures.

Good Weather Resistance: Maintains stable physical properties across a wide temperature range from -40°C to 120°C (and even short-term higher), without becoming brittle. It exhibits good long-term anti-aging performance for outdoor applications.

Flame Retardancy: Has a high ignition point and is self-extinguishing upon removal of a flame. It does not produce toxic gases when burning. Its flame retardancy rating can reach Class B1, making it a flame-retardant engineering plastic.

High Heat and Cold Resistance: Retains good mechanical strength, rigidity, and dimensional stability in both high and low-temperature environments.

Bendability: Possesses good plasticity and flexibility, allowing for cold-curving at room temperature, making it suitable for arched structures like skylights.

Thermal Insulation and Sound Insulation: Multi-wall and hollow cell structures significantly reduce thermal conduction, offering better insulation than glass of comparable thickness. They also effectively reduce noise transmission.

Anti-Condensation: Under certain conditions (e.g., with multi-wall sheets), the interior surface temperature is higher than that of glass, helping to reduce condensation formation.

Chemical Resistance: Resists weak acids, weak alkalis, alcohols, aliphatic hydrocarbons, and other chemicals. (Note: Resistance is poor against strong acids, strong alkalis, and some organic solvents.)

Electrical Insulation: Serves as an excellent electrical insulator with good dielectric strength.

Ease of Fabrication: Can be easily processed using standard tools for cutting, drilling, and cold bending, facilitating simple installation.

I. Construction & Architecture

Skylights & Domes: Used in arched, sloping, and barrel-vaulted roofs for large commercial buildings, airports, train stations, sports arenas, and greenhouses.

Curtain Walls & Facades: Employed as non-load bearing exterior walls, interior decorative walls, partitions, and transparent noise barriers for elevated roads, offering both light transmission and aesthetic appeal.

Canopies & Shelters: Ideal for entrance canopies for residences, malls, banks, and hotels, as well as for bicycle and carport shelters due to their durability.

Interior Design: Used for transparent guardrails in shopping malls, staircase panels, bathroom partitions, lightbox panels, and various decorative signage.

II. Agricultural & Horticultural Applications

Modern Greenhouses: The primary covering material for large multi-span greenhouses, botanical gardens, nursery greenhouses, and flower markets, providing insulation, light transmission, and impact resistance.

Livestock Farming: Used for roofing in poultry farms, piggeries, and stables to create well-lit, hygienic, and easy-to-clean environments.

III. Industrial & Equipment Applications

Equipment Windows/Guards: Serves as observation windows, protective covers for machinery, and safety barriers for automated equipment.

Electronics & Appliances: Used for microwave oven fronts, refrigerator liners, coffee machine panels, and audio equipment faces.

Advertising & Display: Fabricated into outdoor advertising lightboxes, exhibition stands, product display cases, and protective shields.

Transportation: Applied in aircraft windows, internal partitions for trains and ships, as well as automotive sunroofs, side windows, and interior components.

IV. Safety & Security Applications

Bullet-Resistance & Security: Used in banks, jewelry stores, museums, and for riot police shields as a replacement for bulletproof glass in high-security applications.

Industrial Safety: Utilized for explosion-proof, shatter-resistant observation windows, protective screens in mines, oil fields, and chemical plants, and for visors on safety helmets.

V. Other Specialized Applications

Noise Barriers: Transparent soundproof barriers installed alongside highways, railways, and overpasses.

Medical Devices: Used for housings or components of medical equipment that require transparency and resistance to frequent disinfection.

Yellowing/Hazing: Caused by UV exposure. Prevent by selecting high-quality sheets with UV-protective coating.

Scratches/Abrasion: Surface is softer than glass and scratches easily. Handle with care during transport and installation.

Thermal Expansion: High thermal expansion coefficient. Must allow for adequate expansion gaps during installation to avoid deformation or stress cracking.

Stress Cracking: Caused by improper installation (over-tightened fasteners, forced bending) or exposure to incompatible chemicals (strong alkalis, solvents).

Leakage/Water Condensation: Incorrect installation of multi-wall sheets (wrong channel direction, improper sealing, or unsealed edges) can lead to water ingress, dirt accumulation, or algae growth inside the channels.

Improper Cleaning: Using harsh chemicals (acids, alkalis) or abrasive tools/materials can damage the surface and its UV coating.
