Poly Methyl Meth Acrylate (PMMA)

Polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA), more commonly known by the trade name Plexiglas or acrylic, is a transparent and durable thermoplastic polymer that has a wide range of applications in various industries. This material is considered a suitable alternative to glass in many applications due to its outstanding properties such as high transparency, impact resistance, and ease of shaping.

Properties of Polymethyl Methacrylate

High transparency: It transmits light well and has high gloss

Impact resistance: Compared to glass, it has much higher resistance to impact and breakage.
Light weight: Much less than glass, which makes it easier to transport and install.
Ease of shaping: Can be easily cut, bent and shaped.
Weather resistance: Resistant to ultraviolet rays and weather changes.
Thermal and acoustic insulation: It is a good thermal and acoustic insulator.
