PMMA
General-purpose transparent unmodified PMMA is a basic-grade polymethyl methacrylate produced from methyl methacrylate (MMA) via bulk or suspension polymerization without fillers or modifiers. It features exceptional light transmittance (≥92%), excellent weather resistance, and good mechanical strength. As the earliest commercially produced acrylic material, it is widely used in general applications requiring optical clarity and aesthetic quality.
