PC Particle Board (PC Crystal Panel/Polycarbonate Embossed Sheet/PC Diamond Pattern Sheet)
Product Overview
The PC Particle Board represents a functional sheet material combining the practical performance of engineering plastics with decorative aesthetics. Manufactured from high-purity polycarbonate resin using precision extrusion combined with in-line embossing technology, this panel features uniformly distributed three-dimensional granular structures across its surface. These micron-scale protrusions not only impart distinctive visual texture—creating diamond-like sparkling effects under light illumination—but also achieve soft light diffusion through geometric optical principles, eliminating direct glare. The panel combines the inherent high toughness, lightweight nature, and easy fabrication characteristics of polycarbonate with the decorative appeal and privacy screening functions provided by the surface texture, offering material solutions for modern spatial design that traditional glass and acrylic cannot replicate.

Product Features
Unique Optical Decorative Effect
The surface granular structure is designed based on geometric optical principles; as light penetrates the panel, multiple refractions and reflections occur at grain interfaces, creating rich layers of light and shadow. Diamond textures produce regular star-like sparkling effects, while ice crystal textures generate random flowing halos, creating dynamic visual experiences for spaces. Unlike standard light diffusion panels, the particle board maintains decorative texture while achieving light softening, combining functional and aesthetic value.
Superior Mechanical Safety Performance
The substrate maintains the high toughness characteristics of polycarbonate material, with impact resistance 200× stronger than ordinary glass—it will not shatter into sharp fragments even under strong impact, suitable for crowded public spaces. After UV surface hardening treatment, pencil hardness reaches H-grade, significantly improving scratch resistance to withstand mechanical friction during daily cleaning and maintenance, preserving a long-lasting pristine appearance.
Flexible Thermoforming Capability
The panel can be easily thermoformed through bending, vacuum forming, or blow molding within the softening temperature range of 140°C-160°C; the granular texture remains clear and intact during forming, enabling complex three-dimensional shapes such as cylindrical lamp shades, curved partitions, and irregular furniture components. Minimum bending radius reaches 3× panel thickness, providing designers with extensive creative freedom.
Controllable Privacy Screening Function
Privacy levels from semi-transparent to near-opaque can be achieved by adjusting grain density and height. While maintaining spatial daylighting, rear object contours are effectively blurred, suitable for scenarios requiring privacy protection such as shower rooms, changing rooms, and medical consultation rooms. Haze can be customized within 30%-70% to balance transparency and screening.
Excellent Weathering & Chemical Stability
Double-sided co-extruded UV protective layers effectively block UV erosion, with no significant yellowing after 5 years of outdoor use. Resistant to weak acid and alkali corrosion, unaffected by humid environments, suitable for high-humidity settings like kitchens and bathrooms. The surface granular structure increases contact angle, providing certain hydrophobic self-cleaning effects to reduce water stain retention.
Environmental & Sustainability Features
100% recyclable thermoplastic material with no toxic substance release during production or recycling. Density is only half that of glass, reducing transportation energy consumption. Long service life reduces replacement frequency, with overall life-cycle environmental load lower than traditional decorative materials. Compliant with indoor air quality standards, formaldehyde-free.

Fabrication & Installation Guide
Cutting
Can be cut using CNC routers, laser cutters, or precision saws. Laser cutting produces smooth edges but may cause slight yellowing—power and speed must be controlled. For mechanical cutting, carbide-tipped saw blades are recommended at 3000-4000rpm with moderate feed rates to prevent chipping.
Thermoforming
Preheating temperature recommended at 140°C-160°C, holding time calculated by thickness (approximately 2-3 minutes/mm). When bending with textured side outward, slightly reduce temperature or extend heating time to prevent texture stretching deformation. Slow cooling after forming to eliminate internal stress.
Bonding & Joining
Dedicated PC adhesives (such as dichloromethane-based or acrylate adhesives) recommended for solvent bonding, or neutral cure silicone structural adhesives. For mechanical fastening, screw holes should be 2-3mm larger than bolt diameter to allow for thermal expansion, avoiding over-tightening that may cause panel cracking.
Cleaning & Maintenance
Clean with soft damp cloth and neutral detergent, avoiding abrasive cleaning powders or hard brushes. Stubborn stains can be gently wiped with isopropyl alcohol. Avoid prolonged contact with organic solvents such as acetone or toluene to prevent surface corrosion.
