Advantages and disadvantages of PC eyewear frame material

PC material, full name Polycarbonate, is a common engineering plastic. It has excellent physical and chemical properties, so it is widely used in various fields, such as electronic products, automotive parts, building materials and glasses.

Advantages of PC material:

1. Lightweight: PC material is very light, more comfortable to wear, and will not bring heavy burden to the nose bridge and ears.

2. Impact resistance: PC material has high strength and rigidity, and has better impact resistance than general plastic materials. Even if it is hit by an accident, it is not easy to break or deform, and it is safer.

3. Beautiful: PC material can be made into a variety of fashionable styles to meet the aesthetic needs of different groups of people.

4. Low price: The material price is low, and compared with other high-end frames, the price of PC glasses frames is more affordable.

Disadvantages of PC material:

1. Easy to peel: The surface paint of PC glasses frames may not be ideal, and it is easy to peel, affecting the aesthetics. Therefore, regular maintenance and care are required, otherwise the aesthetics will be greatly reduced.

2. Poor comfort: Due to the hard nature of PC material, long-term wearing may feel uncomfortable and require some adaptation.

3. Not resistant to high temperatures: Compared with other advanced materials, PC materials have limited high temperature tolerance. When exposed to high temperature environments, PC materials may soften, deform, or lose their original strength and rigidity.

In general, PC glasses frames excel in lightness, impact resistance, and aesthetics, but shortcomings such as easy paint loss, poor comfort, and limited selection also need to be noted.
