While polycarbonates have many uses and benefits, the impacts of prolonged exposure to UV radiation that can affect safety and performance require a novel approach.

This case study explores how our specialized labs and equipment were used to test the performance of polymers, including polycarbonate, under different environmental conditions.

This case study covers the following topics:

• The benefit of using polycarbonates;
• Safety issues as a result of UV radiation; and
• Approaches to testing polymers.
