Polycarbonate (PC) is a high-performance, synthetic filament used for fused filament fabrication 3D printing. It is a recyclable material that can be engineered to meet specific application or processing requirements, such as low warping.

PC can be used to prototype windows and other clear products that would cost significantly more to make with other materials because of its transparency. Because of its high heat resistance, it may be utilized to make working prototypes where even ABS would deform in the presence of heat or stress.It is the perfect material for more demanding 3D printing applications because of its toughness and rigidity.

Lighting, electrical and electronic equipment, and optical applications are the principal uses for polycarbonates.Examples include large light fixtures, discs used for data storage, and monitors and phones used for communications.
