What is Acrylic Sheet?

0 Comments

The acrylic sheet that people often say is the polymethyl methacrylate Polymer Methyl Methacrylate (PMMA) sheet, which is polymerized by “Methyl Methacrylate (MMA)”. Or it is extruded from acrylic pellets through an extruder. In the past, the board was commonly called plexiglass. Acrylic is derived from the English acrylic, which means PMMA board made of organic compound MMA. Its transparency and light transmittance are like glass. All panels made of transparent plastics such as PS, PC, etc. or poor-quality recycled MMA are collectively called plexiglass. In order to distinguish, the PMMA board made of high-quality pure material MMA is named acrylic board to distinguish it from the general plexiglass board.

Acrylic is a transparent plastic material with outstanding strength, stiffness, and optical clarity. Acrylic board is easy to fabricate, bonds well with adhesives and solvents, and is easy to thermoform. It has superior weathering properties compared to many other transparent plastics.
