PMMA Plastic

Engineering PLASTIC

PMMA, also known as plexiglass or acrylic, is a clear, hard plastic with excellent light transmission. The material is lightweight and easy to work with. This makes PMMA suitable for a wide range of applications, from machine parts to medical devices.

The properties of PMMA

Acrylic is particularly known for its weight and weatherability. It is a very light material which is well designed to withstand all kinds of weather conditions. But it also has properties such as:

  • One of the hardest thermoplastics and scratch-resistant
  • A light transmission of 92%
  • Can be sawn, milled, drilled, glued and polished
  • Chemically resistant to many chemicals

What is the material specifically used for?

Acrylic has many diverse applications due to its good combination of properties. The material is often used for structural applications, such as liquid gauges and sight glasses, as well as for gears and other machine parts. Besides its use in the industrial sector, the material is also widely used in other sectors.
