Polycarbonate (PC) is a high performance polymer used in many sectors, such as the automotive industry, building and construction, communications technology, electronics and medical devices.
Its Eco-profile and that of its leading precursor, Bisphenol A (BPA), have been updated and can be downloaded for free from the PlasticsEurope Resources / Eco-profiles section.
Eco-profiles are important information for conducting the Life Cycle Environmental Assessment (LCA) of plastic solutions.
The update of the PC and BPA Eco-profiles is part of PlasticsEurope's commitment to update its Eco-profiles programme every three years.
