About

Polycarbonate (PC) is a material renowned in the 3D printing market for its impact resistance and toughness. It is more durable and flexible than PLA but less so than nylon, and it is harder than PLA and PMMA, while also being lighter and less dense than ABS. PC is a lightweight yet strong thermoplastic, ideal for a wide range of professional applications. It is commonly used for phone cases, water bottles, prototype windows, and electronic appliances.
