IPolycarbonate (PC) yipolymer equlathe iqela lekhabhonathi kwityathanga leemolekyuli. Ngokwesakhiwo seqela le-ester, lungohlulwa lube zi-aliphatic, aromatic, aliphatic - aromatic kunye nezinye iintlobo. Iipropathi zoomatshini ezisezantsi ze-aliphatic kunye ne-aliphatic enamakha i-polycarbonate yokunciphisa isicelo sabo kwiiplastiki zobunjineli. Kuphela yipolycarbonate enamakha kuphela eveliswe kwimizi-mveliso. Ngenxa yobuninzi besakhiwo se-polycarbonate, i-PC iye yaba ziiplastikhi zobunjineli ngokubanzi ezinelona zinga lokukhula ngokukhawuleza phakathi kweeplastiki zenjineli ezintlanu.
I-PC ayimelani nokukhanya kwe-ultraviolet, i-alkali eyomeleleyo, kunye nokukrwela. Ijika tyheli kunye nokuvezwa kwexesha elide kwi-ultraviolet. Ke ngoko, isidingo sezongezo eziguqulweyo kubalulekile.
