Printing often hear of acrylic products acrylic plate, acrylic, plastic pellets, acrylic light boxes, signs, acrylic bathtub, acrylic artificial marble, acrylic resin, acrylic (latex) paint, etc. products, a wide range. In fact, the Department of acrylic products, general market consumers often acrylic pellets, sheet metal or resin and other raw materials through a variety of different processing methods, and with a variety of different materials and functions of parts to be assembled from the acrylic products. As for the commonly heard of acrylic fiber, acrylic, cotton, acrylic yarn, acrylic dragon and other means by acrylic polymer made ??of man-made fibers, not related with the acrylic products. Among them, commonly known as acrylic plate of polymethyl methacrylate Polymeric Methyl Methacrylate (PMMA) plates, it is 'the methyl methacrylate monomer of methyl Methacrylate (MMA)' polymerization. Extrusion is made through the crowded board machine or by acrylic pellets. Previous acrylic panels are commonly known as plexiglass. The plexiglass derived from the English Organic Glass, means that organic compounds of the MMA made ??of PMMA sheet, transparency and light transmission as glass. But in recent years due to the sheet of transparent plastic such as PS, the PC or made ??by the poor quality of the recovery of MMA are collectively referred to as plexiglass. Demand segmentation purposes, the special will be made ??in the pure material of high quality MMA PMMA plate shall be acrylic plate names of the plexiglass plate and in general the segment.

PMMA is a polymer of acrylic acid and its esters polymerization collectively referred to as acrylic resin, the corresponding plastic collectively referred to as the polyacrylic acid plastic, which is the most widely used poly methyl acrylic ester methyl application. Symbols of poly (methyl methacrylate) PMMA, commonly known as Plexiglas, is the most excellent quality so far synthetic transparent material.

PMMA has a lightweight, inexpensive, easy to shape and so on.Forming method, casting, injection molding, machining, acrylic thermoforming. Injection molding, can be mass-produced, the process is simple, low cost. Therefore, it is more widely applied, it is widely used in instrumentation parts, car lights, optical lenses, transparent pipeline.
