Transparent plastics

Several plastics are available in a transparent version. PVC and Polystyrene are available in transparent versions, but the most common plastics that are used in transparent versions are Polycarbonate (including PC Makroclear , PC Makrolife and PC 1000 ), Acrylic and PETG. These materials are often the alternative to glass. Transparent plastics are impact-resistant or even unbreakable, lightweight, easy to bend hot or cold, flexible and, in the case of PVC, have good chemical resistance.
