Acrylic

Also called PMMA or Plexiglass which be original from English acrylic (acrylic plastic), the chemical name is polymethyl methacrylate. It is an important plastic polymer material developed earlier, with good transparency, chemical stability, weatherability, easy dyeing, processing, and beautiful appearance. It’s popular applications in the construction industry. Acrylic can be classified: cast plates, extruded plates and molded plastics.

Properties

1. Clear as crystal with excellent transmittance, it’s as high as 92%, soft light, clear vision, and good appearance for colored dyes acrylic

2. Weatherability, high hardness and gloss and high-temperature performance.

3. Excellent machinability, not only thermoforming but also molding .

4. Transmittance be compared to glass, the density is only of glass. Not fragile, even if damaged, without sharp fragments.

5. With excellent wear-resistance, it is similar to aluminum, stability and good resistant chemical corrosion.

6. Excellent printability and spray

7. Flame resistance: Non self-igniting but flammable, not self extinguishing.

Characteristic

1. Hardness: The average Rockwell Hardness: 8-9

It’s one of the most importance of production craftwork and technical Data for cast acrylic. It’s the vital data for the purity of raw material PMMA, weatherability, high temperature resistance. The hardness have influence on the shrinkage,bending, deformation & crack resistance.

2. Thickness

Thickness tolerance be allowance according to International standard, it’s the key of quality and production techniques.

3. Transparency

Strictly select raw material, advanced formula & modern production technology, to ensure excellent transparency, pure whiteness and crystal clear color after flame polishing.

Application:

PMMA is a kind of polymer which is polymerized by acrylic acid and its esters. The corresponding plastics are called polyacrylic plastics, Polymethylmethacrylate methyl ester is the most wide application. PMMA be called plexiglass, is the best synthetic transparent material.

PMMA has the advantages of light weight, low price and easy forming. Its forming methods include casting, injection molding, machining, thermoforming etc. Especially, injection molding can be mass production, making simple, low cost. Therefore, it is widely application: automobile lamps, optical lenses, transparent pipes etc.

Advantage

It’s the best new material of sanitary, except for ceramics. The advantage of acrylic is not only high brightness, but also good toughness,

Not dilapidation easily, strong repairable. It can become newer, soften when you wiped the sanitary ware by soft foam dipped toothpaste.

Soft texture, without cold feeling in winter, bright color, the acrylic sanitary can meet up different personality. It’s durable and environment for basin, bathtub,toilet marked by Acrylic. The level of Ray be similar to the radiation of human.
