Lexan is a brand of highly-durable polycarbonate resin thermoplastic intended to replace glass.
It is similar to polymethyl methacrylate (Plexiglas/Lucite) in appearance, but is far more durable, often to the point of being "bulletproof ." Lexan is typically used in the aerospace industry for items such as aircraft canopies , windscreens and other windows, but can often be seen in household items, such as bottles. Lexan is manufactured by GE Plastics, a unit of the conglomerate, General Electric.
