Samsung: Galaxy S III is not plastic but of polycarbonate

Many arguments that Samsung has adopted the plastic for its new Galaxy S III are not earned virtually nothing, because from an official of the company turns out that the Galaxy S III is not made ​​of plastic but of Polycarbonate . This is a very valuable material that can be a good substitute for glass, in contrast to which, however, can be bent even at low temperatures.
 
The polycarbonate covers the entire surface of the Galaxy S III , including the battery cover, and it took quite a lot 'to learn the nature of the materials from which the new South Korean super smartphone. In particular, members of the site PhoneArena , sought and obtained confirmation that all the houses of the device was in Polycarbonate , also the battery cover. Here is the official statement of Samsung :

To cover the battery is used polycarbonate. Polycarbonate is lightweight, strong and is already widely used in the mobile industry. It was chosen as the best material to represent the minimal organic design of the Galaxy S III. Using three layers of polycarbonate of high quality, pure and transparent, not only is high the aesthetics of the telephone but also the duration in time and the scratch resistance. 

It must be said that the polycarbonate we have right under their noses already many years, but probably we never informed about it. The polycarbonate, in fact, is the material with which the substrates are created CD-ROM, and is indeed very strong even though 'the impression of being simple plastic.

Leaving out the tests of resistance and comparison with other types of materials, we say that the thinner the layer of polycarbonate, the more resistant is the object both when subjected to bending and compression. Just to have a comparison with the plastic with which the polycarbonate has little to do in terms of quality and durability, we add that this type of material can be up to as many as 300 times more resistant of the same plastic and offers, for the same layers and a thickness, of "numbers" similar (but not identical) to the Kevlar as regards the bending tests and compression.
So, mystery solved. If you still think the Galaxy S III is made ​​of "simple" plastic, you are wrong. It 's made ​​of polycarbonate !  [ Via ]
