In the building materials market, traditional building materials such as color steel plates and asbestos tiles have long dominated. However, their shortcomings are gradually being exposed. Color steel plates have poor weather resistance and generally exhibit obvious rusting and corrosion after 5-10 years of use. Additionally, their thermal insulation is poor, which can cause indoor heating and increase energy consumption in summer; Asbestos tiles pose health hazards as fiber inhalation can damage the lungs, and their flexural strength is only about 10-15 MPa, which is low and prone to damage in harsh weather conditions.
PC tiles, mainly made of polycarbonate, have many advantages that traditional building materials cannot match. From the perspective of weather resistance, PC tiles can maintain stable performance in the temperature range of -40 ℃ to 120 ℃. After passing the xenon lamp aging test for 5000 hours, the color difference change △ E ≤ 5, and they are not afraid of severe cold, heat, and long-term exposure to ultraviolet radiation, making them less prone to aging and fading. In terms of insulation, its thermal conductivity is as low as 0.15-0.22W/(m · K), and its unique structure effectively blocks heat transfer, reduces indoor temperature fluctuations, reduces the use of air conditioning and heating equipment, and achieves energy conservation and emission reduction. In terms of sound insulation performance, PC tiles can isolate 30-40dB of external noise and create a quiet space.
Excellent performance and diverse usage scenarios of PC tiles
1. Excellent transparency
The transmittance of PC tiles is as high as 85% -92%, comparable to glass. In the greenhouse scene, sufficient light passes through the PC tiles to provide good lighting conditions for plants, meet the needs of photosynthesis, and promote plant growth. When applied in building areas such as skylights and skylights, it can fill the interior with natural light, reduce the use of artificial lighting, save energy, and create a bright and comfortable indoor environment.
2. Strong impact resistance
PC tiles have excellent impact resistance, with an impact strength 250-300 times that of ordinary glass and 30 times that of acrylic sheets, and are known as “unbreakable glass”. In industrial plants, warehouses and other places, even if heavy objects accidentally fall or are impacted by external forces, PC tiles are not easily broken, ensuring building safety and the safety of internal personnel and equipment. In applications such as outdoor billboards and sound barriers, PC tiles can withstand impact and maintain structural integrity in the face of severe weather such as strong wind and rainstorm.
3. Flexible bending performance
PC tiles have good bendability, with a minimum bending radius of 175 times the thickness of the board. They can be easily bent into various arcs and shapes according to architectural design requirements. In the design of uniquely shaped building roofs, curved skylights, etc., bendable PC tiles can perfectly match the designer’s creativity, achieve diverse building appearance effects, and meet the modern architecture’s pursuit of beauty and personality.
4. Superior thermal insulation performance
The thermal insulation performance of PC tiles makes them an ideal material for building energy efficiency. Used on the roofs and walls of residential and commercial buildings, it can effectively block heat transfer, providing insulation in summer and winter. Its heat transfer coefficient (U value) can be as low as 1.5-2.0 W/(㎡· K), reducing the energy consumption of air conditioning and heating systems, lowering energy consumption and usage costs, and meeting the requirements of the era of energy conservation and environmental protection.
5. Various applications of corrugated support
The corrugated structure design of PC tiles makes them suitable for both lighting materials and building facades. As a lighting material, corrugated structure enhances the strength of the board in lighting channels, greenhouses and other scenes, while ensuring even light penetration. When used for building facades, corrugated shapes enrich the appearance of the building, increase its three-dimensional sense, and also serve as a certain shade and rainproof function. The peak height of its corrugated waves is generally between 20-50mm, and the wave spacing is between 100-300mm, which can be adjusted according to actual needs.
