Basically I think Polycarbonate ("Lexan") it too brittle


Polycarbonate is one of the toughest plastics and is used for bullet proof "glass" inertia bullet pullers, screen door glazing and a host of other application requiring high impact properties.


In thin fluid containers it is too brittle.

Especially if compared to either Polyethylene
or the "other Nagalene", Polypropylene.

You must be using poor quality polycarbonate bottles made in China.
