Global Polycarbonates Market by Manufacturers, Regions, Type and Application, Forecast to 2021
Polycarbonates (PC) are a group of thermoplastic polymers containing carbonate groups in their chemical structures. Polycarbonates used in engineering are strong, tough materials, and some grades are optically transparent. They are easily worked, molded, and thermoformed. Because of these properties, polycarbonates find many applications. Polycarbonates do not have a unique resin identification code (RIC) and are identified as "Other", 7 on the RIC list.
“BPA-free” products still have BPA-like materials in them that pose similar health risks. Was the freakout worth it?
All this fear about BPA is overblown. We could get sidetracked by blaming media hype, poor science reporting, or even how scientific research is funded. But while these things are highly relevant, let’s talk about sharks instead.
In two articles about the link between herbicides and cancer, toxicologist David Eastmondand chemist Derek Lowe use a great analogy about sharks to explain the difference between hazard and risk. “Sharks are a hazard. They are fierce predators with sharp teeth, and they most definitely have attacked humans in the past. But for most people, sharks are not much of a risk. ‘Risk’ … refers to your chances of being harmed under real-world conditions, while ‘hazard’ refers to the potential for harm,” Lowe says. So if you’re swimming in a tank full of sharks, your risk is high. If you’re mowing your lawn somewhere in the Midwest, your risk is low. The hazard does not change.
This analogy applies to BPA as well (BPA is the shark in this scenario). It is a hazard—multiple studies have shown that it can harm animals when they’re fed large amounts of the stuff. But is it a risk? At the levels we’re being exposed to, no it is not. In January 2015, a huuuuuuuuge (seriously, it’s 1,000 pages long) risk assessment conducted by the European Food Safety Authority found that “there is no health concern for any age group from dietary exposure and low health concern from aggregated exposure,” according to its panel on BPA. That is, we are not swimming in pools with BPA sharks when we use, say, plastic food-storage containers.
But before we could sort this all out, people got pretty freaked out about BPA. As a result, a lot of companies pulled it out of their products and replaced it with—wait for it—virtually identical materials that appear to have the exact same effects as BPA in large doses. Nothing really changed. For all our stress, nothing is better, and things might even end up being worse—at this point, scientists know a lot more about BPA than they do about the newish alternatives. Also, you might now be out a couple hundred dollars on new glass and aluminum containers. We can hardly blame anyone for responding to this panic, but the way it’s turned out suggests that reacting to headlines without carefully weighing evidence may not be in our best interest in the long run.
Recent market research indicates that the global market for automotive glass will grow at an average annual rate of 3.75% in the period leading up to 2018. The.
