Product Description
Scratch resistant acrylic sheets are a specialized type of engineered acrylic material that have been designed and manufactured to exhibit enhanced resistance against scratches, abrasions, and general wear and tear compared to standard acrylic sheets.
These sheets are often referred to as "hard-coat" or "super-hard" acrylic, denoting the added surface treatment or coating applied during the production process. The key aspect that differentiates scratch resistant acrylic is the application of a specialized scratch-resistant layer or finish on top of the base acrylic material.
The scratch-resistant coating is typically composed of silica-based or other highly durable compounds that are bonded to the acrylic surface through techniques such as vacuum deposition, plasma treatment, or chemical vapor deposition. This protective layer gives the acrylic sheet enhanced hardness and abrasion resistance without compromising its inherent clarity and transparency.
Availability and Customization:
Scratch-resistant acrylic sheets are available from various manufacturers in a range of thicknesses, sizes, and custom options to meet specific design requirements.
Some manufacturers may also offer additional features, such as UV protection or anti-glare properties, to further enhance the performance of the sheets.

Why choose scratch-resistant acrylic material
Choose us, and we promise to do everything needed to ensure a successful and satisfactory working partnership.
Even the smallest scratch is annoying and impairs the overall visual appearance – especially on transparent and high-gloss surfaces. Cast and extruded acrylic glass is among the thermoplastics with the highest surface hardness, as well as offering excellent scratch resistance. This is confirmed by the pencil hardness test, among others.
This test involves a pencil being clamped into a device at a 45-degree angle to the surface to be tested, and then being slid across the surface of the test sample. The first pencil hardness (starting with the highest hardness) whose tip does not leave a noticeable scratch is considered the characteristic physical variable. For comparison, polycarbonate has a pencil hardness rating of HB, while acrylic has a 5H hardness rating, which is six degrees higher.
Production Process
The manufacture of scratch-resistant acrylic sheets involves a specialized process to enhance the surface durability and abrasion resistance of the material. The key steps in this production process are as follows:
Raw Material Preparation:
The primary raw material is acrylic resin, which provides the base material for the sheets.
Scratch-resistant additives, such as hard inorganic particles or specialized coatings, are also carefully measured and prepared for incorporation into the acrylic.
Compounding:
The acrylic resin and scratch-resistant additives are fed into a high-intensity mixer or extruder, where they are thoroughly blended and homogenized.
This compounding process ensures a uniform distribution of the scratch-resistant additives throughout the acrylic matrix.
Extrusion:
The compounded acrylic material is then fed into a specialized extruder equipped with precise temperature and pressure controls.
The extruder melts and forces the acrylic compound through a die, shaping it into a continuous sheet or film.
Surface Treatment:
Depending on the specific scratch-resistant technology used, the extruded polycarbonate sheet may undergo an additional surface treatment process.
This can involve the application of a protective coating, either through a separate coating step or an in-line coating process integrated into the extrusion line.
custom to size
Cutting:
- Cutting to Size: Polycarbonate sheets can be cut to the desired size using various methods, such as:
- Circular saws or table saws with fine-toothed blades designed for plastics
- CNC (Computer Numerical Control) routers or laser cutters for precise, custom shapes
- Manual scoring and snapping for simple straight-line cuts
- Cutting to Size: Polycarbonate sheets can be cut to the desired size using various methods, such as:
Trimming and Edging:
- Edge Finishing: The edges of the cut acrylic sheets can be finished using techniques like:
- Grinding or sanding to smooth the edges
- Applying edge treatments, such as decorative edge moldings or polished edges
- Edge Finishing: The edges of the cut acrylic sheets can be finished using techniques like:
Drilling and Punching:
- Holes and Openings: acrylic sheets can be drilled or punched to create holes, slots, or other openings as required for the application.
- Specialized drill bits and punches designed for plastics are typically used to prevent cracking or chipping.
Thermoforming:
- Complex Shapes: acrylic sheets can be thermoformed into various three-dimensional shapes, such as curved or contoured panels, using specialized molds and heating equipment.
- This process allows for the creation of custom-shaped parts from flat sheets.
