Acrylic, also known as polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA), is a transparent thermoplastic material known for its excellent optical clarity and weather resistance. It is a versatile material with a wide range of applications. Acrylic is available in both extruded and cast forms, with extruded acrylic being the more commonly used type.

Acrylic is widely used in various industries due to its desirable properties. It is commonly used in signage, displays, and advertising boards due to its optical clarity and ability to transmit light. It is also utilized in the construction industry for windows, skylights, and architectural features. Additionally, acrylic finds applications in automotive components, lighting fixtures, protective barriers, and medical devices.

Acrylic offers several advantages over other materials. Its exceptional optical clarity allows for maximum light transmission, making it an ideal choice for applications that require transparency. It also has excellent weather resistance, retaining its clarity and color stability even in prolonged exposure to UV radiation. Furthermore, acrylic is lightweight, impact-resistant, and has good chemical resistance, enhancing its durability and versatility.

Acrylic exhibits good mechanical properties, including high tensile strength and impact resistance. It has a relatively low coefficient of friction, making it resistant to scratching and wear. Acrylic also maintains its physical properties over a wide temperature range, allowing for consistent performance in various environments.
Acrylic extrusion offers customization options to meet specific requirements. Different grades of acrylic can be extruded to achieve desired properties such as impact resistance or UV stability. Extruded acrylic profiles can be produced in different lengths, thicknesses, and shapes. Moreover, acrylic can be customized in terms of color and finishes, providing design flexibility and aesthetic options.
