Usage

General Description

Poly(bisphenol A carbonate) is a thermoplastic polymer that is commonly used in a variety of applications, including the production of food and drink containers, eyeglass lenses, and compact discs. This chemical is synthesized from bisphenol A and phosgene, resulting in a durable and heat-resistant material with high impact strength. However, concerns have been raised about the potential health risks associated with exposure to bisphenol A, which is a known endocrine disruptor. As a result, there has been increased interest in developing alternative materials to replace poly(bisphenol A carbonate) in consumer products.
