Answer:

The main reason is because of the ultraviolet radiation of the sun. If you usually use your smartphone with the case in outdoor, the case will turn yellow after a long time exposes under the sun. Of course, UV radiation isn't the only element that can cause plastics and polymers to age.

Explanation:

Clear phone cases are normally made from silicone—a polymer that's popular for its inexpensive and flexible properties. Unfortunately, these polymers turn yellow as they age. This natural process is accelerated when they are exposed to excessive amounts of chemicals, light and heat.
