[Analysis Case] Evaluation of Surface Deterioration of Polycarbonate
Structural analysis of resin surface degradation using TOF-SIMS.
Polycarbonate (PC) is a type of thermoplastic that has excellent transparency, impact resistance, and heat resistance. It has been reported that degradation occurs due to hydrolysis, leading to the generation of the raw material bisphenol A (BPA). Particularly in solar panels, it is important to understand how the surface of the material changes under UV (ultraviolet) irradiation. Below, we present a case study that evaluated the degree of degradation of the PC surface due to UV irradiation using TOF-SIMS.
