A. Plexiglas and Lexan are trade names for what are generically referred to as acrylic and polycarbonate. Given equal thickness, acrylic is approximately 15 x’s stronger than glass; polycarbonate is 250 x’s stronger than glass. These are softer surface materials than glass and scratch more easily, although proper care and cleaning will lengthen their clear appearance. Please call to discuss you specific application.
