Clear phone cases are typically made from a mix of TPU (Thermoplastic Polyurethane), polycarbonate, or silicone. These materials allow for a completely transparent look while providing varying degrees of flexibility, scratch resistance, and drop protection.
The specific material determines both the durability of the case and its tendency to discolor over time:
-
TPU (Thermoplastic Polyurethane): A soft, flexible plastic that is easy to put on and take off. It absorbs shocks well.
-
Polycarbonate (PC): A hard, rigid plastic. It offers excellent drop and scratch protection and resists yellowing much better than soft plastics.
-
Hybrid Blends: Many premium cases feature a hybrid design that combines both materials. They use a hard polycarbonate backplate for impact resistance and clear TPU on the sides for a snug grip and shock absorption.
-
Silicone: A soft, rubber-like material that offers good grip and shock absorption.
PC (Polycarbonate) Polycarbonate is an optically clear and strong thermoplastic, which is commonly applied in the production of protective phone cases. Polycarb.. Protection without hiding the design Clear cases are usually made from materials such as polycarbonate or TPU, allowing a completely see-through look.
