Abstract:This article covers a quantitative experimental study on the influence of raw materials and materials of construction impurities on polycarbonate color as expressed by a solution yellowness index. Major impurities in the production process were identified, synthesized, and spiked into the baseline materials. A fractional factorial experimental design was executed to provide some information of the influence of impurities as corresponding to levels similar to those occurring in the manufacturing practice.
