Ballistic Performance of Polycarbonate/Polyester and Polycarbonate/Styrene-Acrylonitrile Microlayer Sheets
Extruded microlayer sheets of polycarbonate/polyester (PC/PCTG) and polycarbonate/styrene-acrylonitrile (PC/SAN) were tested for ballistic performance. Composition of the microlayer sheets ranged from 60 to 100 percent polycarbonate. The number of layers in the approximately 3 mm thick sheets ranged from one for the blend control samples to 3713 layers in the PC/PCTG sheets. The normalized ballistic test results showed that some samples performed as well as and slightly better than injection molded polycarbonate samples. The failure mechanism was affected by the composition and the number of layers. Increasing composition of polycarbonate and number of layers decreased the percent of brittle failures.
