Chelora Chemicals UAE supplies Polycarbonate (CAS 25037-45-0) as general-purpose, optical, flame-retardant and sheet-grade granules to injection-moulding, sheet-extrusion, lighting, electrical and automotive-component manufacturers across Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah and all seven Emirates, with batch-wise COA, sealed moisture-protected packing and fast GCC delivery.
Polycarbonate (PC, bisphenol-A polycarbonate) is an amorphous engineering thermoplastic known for outstanding impact strength, transparency and heat resistance, supplied as clear, opaque or coloured granules. It stays tough over a wide temperature range and glass transition is about 147 °C.
It is used for automotive lenses and glazing, electrical and electronic housings, LED lighting covers and diffusers, solid and multiwall sheet, optical media and lenses, medical devices, safety equipment and large returnable water bottles. Grades vary by melt flow rate, flame rating, UV stabilisation and light transmission.
As an established chemical supplier in the UAE, Chelora Chemicals sources Polycarbonate from approved manufacturers with consistent assay and low levels of melt flow rate, light transmission, colour and moisture, and delivers it to customers in Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, Ajman, Ras Al Khaimah, Fujairah and Umm Al Quwain, as well as export customers in Saudi Arabia, Oman, Qatar, Kuwait, Bahrain, Africa and South Asia.

Polycarbonate absorbs moisture that causes splay marks and loss of toughness when moulded wet, so we ship granules in sealed, moisture-protected bags and bulk packs that keep the resin clean and dry through UAE summer humidity.
Whether you need a few drums for a pilot batch or regular bulk loads for continuous production, we plan packing, labelling, documentation and transport from port or warehouse to your gate.

Typically 25 kg moisture-protected bags on pallets, with jumbo bags and octabins for large users, and full 20 ft or 40 ft container loads for regular supply.
The minimum order depends on packing and current stock. We handle everything from a few drums or small packs for trials and lab qualification up to full container loads.
Store sealed bags indoors in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from direct sun, heat and ignition sources. Reseal opened bags promptly and dry the resin before processing.
Polycarbonate pellets are generally not classified as hazardous for transport, but fine dust can form combustible dust clouds and molten polymer causes severe burns. Process with ventilation and follow the SDS supplied with the grade.
Yes. We export from the UAE to Saudi Arabia, Oman, Qatar, Kuwait, Bahrain, East and West Africa, South Asia and other markets on EXW, FOB, CFR, CIF, DAP or DDP terms, subject to the import rules of each destination.
Yes. Samples are available for qualification on request, together with the COA and SDS, so your QC or R&D team can approve the material before a commercial order.
Its amorphous structure and the flexible carbonate links in the chain let it absorb and spread energy rather than crack, so it is used where glass would shatter. Notched impact strength stays high until the part is cold, notched sharply or exposed to solvents.
Dry granules in a desiccant dryer, typically for several hours at around 120 °C, to a very low moisture level before moulding or extrusion. Wet polycarbonate hydrolyses in the melt and loses toughness and clarity.
