Application scope of acrylic plate

The research, development and use of acrylic plates have a history of more than 100 years. In 1880, the polymerization of methacrylic acid was known; In 1901, the research on the synthesis of poly (propionate) was completed; In 1927, the above-mentioned synthesis method was used to try industrial manufacturing; In 1937, methyl methacrylate was successfully manufactured and developed in industry, which led to large-scale manufacturing. Because of its excellent strength, toughness and light transmittance, it was used in aircraft windshields, tank goggles, etc. during World War II. The most common mobile phone screen was made of optical grade acrylic.
Acrylic boards are mainly used for carving, decoration and handicraft making, and extruded boards are usually used for making advertising signs, light boxes, etc. PMMA has the advantages of light weight, low price and easy molding. Its molding methods include casting, injection molding, mechanical processing, thermal molding, etc. In particular, injection molding can be produced in large quantities, with simple manufacturing process and low cost. Therefore, it is widely used in instrument parts, automobile lamps, optical lenses, transparent pipes, etc.
In the aspect of architecture, organic glass is mainly used in lighting body, roof, shed roof, stair and interior wall guard board, etc. The application of plexiglass in lighting shades and automotive lamps of highways and high-grade roads is also very fast. With the construction of hotels, guesthouses and senior residences in big cities, the daylighting body has developed rapidly. The daylighting body made of organic glass extrusion plate has the characteristics of high overall structural strength, light weight, high light transmittance and good safety performance. Compared with the inorganic glass daylighting device, it has great advantages.
In terms of sanitary ware, plexiglass can be used to make bathtubs, washbasins, dressers and other products. The plexiglass bathtub is widely used because of its luxurious appearance, deep sense, easy cleaning, high strength, light weight and comfortable use. Acrylic is the best new material to make sanitary ware after ceramics. Compared with traditional ceramic materials, besides the incomparable high brightness, acrylic has the following advantages: good toughness, not easy to damage; It is highly restorative and can be cleaned by dipping soft foam into toothpaste; The texture is soft, and there is no chilly feeling in winter; Bright colors can meet the individual pursuit of different tastes. The basins, bathtubs and toilets made of acrylic are not only exquisite in design and durable, but also environmentally friendly.
