Polycarbonate can shatter like any material. It just happens to be much less prone to it than other transparent plastic materials like acrylic. It will shatter if you have heated the material upto near its melting point and allowed it to cool again easier than if you have not done so.
Polycarbonate sheets are used in many places since it is what is known as "bulletproof" glass. It is fun stuff....we actually use a pneumatic stapler at work to attach up to 1/4" thick polycarbonate to items we are building.
It is über expensive though. A 4x8 foot sheet of 1/2" polycarbonte runs in the neighborhood of $250.
