Polymethylmethacrylate – Acrylic – PMMA

Polymethylmethacrylate – Acrylic – PMMA

Polymer Type

Thermoplastic

Advantages

Excellent clarity and UV resistance.  Good abrasion resistance, hardness and stiffness.  Low water absorption.  Low smoke emission.  Good track and arc resistance.

Disadvantages

Poor solvent resistance.  Low continuous use temperature of approx. 50°C (120°F).  Poor fatigue resistance.  Notch sensitive.

Applications

Lenses, light covers, glazing (particularly in aircraft), light pipes, meter covers, bathroom fittings, outdoor signs, skylights, baths, toys.  Acrylic film is laminated over ABS sheet to provide UV protection.
