Acrylic is a transparent thermoplastic homopolymer known more commonly by the trade name plexiglass the material is similar to polycarbonate in that it is suitable for use as an impact resistant alternative to glass particularly when the high impact strength of pcis not required.
However it is not resistant to organic substances such as gasoline or alcohol.
It s thanks to this color range that acrylic can be used to create any furniture for any kind of home and office.
Acrylic sheet is easy to fabricate bonds well with adhesives and solvents and is easy to thermoform.
It has superior weathering properties compared to many other transparent plastics.
Stretch forming increases bi axial toughness.
Excellent weatherability and resistance to sunlight.
Apart from its strength and resistance to weather acrylic plastics have many more properties.
The same material can be used as a casting resin or in inks and coatings among many other uses.
It is also transparent and can be made in a variety of colours.
