PMMA Acrylic Sheet 1000x1000mm, 1000x2000mm

Cast Acrylic is a form of poly(methyl methacylate) (PMMA). It is formed by casting the monomer, methyl methacrylate, mixed with initiators and possibly other additives into a form or mold. Sheet and rod stock are generated by casting into static forms, while tubing is done in rotational molds.
Advantages of Cast Acrylic:
1. Cast acrylic has better thermal stability, higher resistance to crazing (when a network of very small cracks forms) when exposed to solvents, wider thermoforming range than extruded acrylic.
2. Cast acrylic has better ability to be reworked hot and it is known for its superior surface finish and optical properties.
3. Cast acrylic is more scratch resistant than extruded acrylic.
4. Cast acrylic is also preferred over extruded acrylic in applications that require machining, such as turning on Engine Lathe or milling/drilling.
5. Extruded acrylic, with far less thermal stability, tends to melt and clog cutting tools. Even with slow speeds and lots of coolant, extruded acrylic does not produce the surface finish and tight tolerances achievable with cast acrylic.
Usage of Cast Acrylic:
This type of acrylic is often used for aquariums, awards, financial tombstones, trophies, corporate gifts, and other products that require shaping or machining. It tends to be clearer and made to a higher quality standard, but in doing so makes it more expensive than extruded acrylic.
