Polycarbonate

In 1953 Hermann Schnell at Bayer joined bisphenol A into long chains through carbonate links and got a clear plastic of remarkable toughness. Daniel Fox at General Electric reached the same material independently the same year, and both companies were selling it by around 1960. **US 3,028,365**, "Thermoplastic aromatic polycarbonates and their manufacture", Schnell, Bottenbruch and Krimm, assigned to Bayer, filed 12. October 1954, granted 3. April 1962, claims "a high molecular weight, thermoplastic polycarbonate having a melting point of at least about 135°C", made from bisphenol A among a wider family. **The classic route uses phosgene, a war gas.** You build a drop-weight rig and find the energy that cracks acrylic - then drop the same on polycarbonate.

Instruksi

1

The specimen table

Cut a 300 x 300 mm plywood board and bore a 100 mm hole in its centre with the hole saw. Rest it on two blocks so the hole is open underneath.

2

The drop tube

Take 2 m of 32 mm PVC pipe. Mark heights from the bottom every 100 mm and drill a 3 mm hole straight through at each mark. A nail through a hole holds the ball; pulling it drops the ball from that height.

Stand it plumb

Clamp the tube to a post or bench leg with pipe clamps, its bottom 10 mm above the hole's centre. Check it with the plumb bob in two directions.

Clamp a sheet

Cut 150 x 150 mm squares of 3 mm acrylic and 3 mm polycarbonate. Leave the protective film on. Clamp one over the hole at all four corners.

Climb the ladder

Glasses on. Weigh the 25 mm ball. Drop it from 100 mm, then 200 mm, and so on, on a fresh spot each time, until the acrylic cracks. Record that height. If it survives the top hole, repeat with the 1 kg weight as in the next step.

Same on polycarbonate

Repeat the whole ladder on polycarbonate. If it survives the top hole, tape the 1 kg weight to a rounded bolt head and drop that from 1.8 m outside the tube, hands clear.

History & Context

**What the patent specifies:** high-molecular aromatic polycarbonates from dihydroxy compounds such as bisphenol A, melting at 135 °C or more. **Modern build (derived):** extruded clear polycarbonate sheet. It went into safety glasses, riot shields, machine guards, bottles and later CDs. Its limits: it scratches easily, yellows in sunlight without a UV coat, is attacked by some solvents, and bisphenol A leaching from food containers made many makers switch those to other plastics.
