It's acrylic, right
What is acrylic? 1. The word "acrylic" may sound strange, because it is a new word that appeared in the mainland only in the past two years. Until 2002, it is in the advertising industry, furniture industry, handicrafts industry is gradually understood by a few people. Acrylic" is a transliteration of foreign words, English is ACRYLIC, it is a chemical material. The chemical name is called "PMMA" belongs to the class of acryl alcohol, commonly known as "specially treated plexiglass", in the application of the industry, its raw materials are generally in the form of particles, plates, tubes, etc. 2. 2. Acrylic sheet and plexiglass?"" Plexiglass" from the English Organic?Glass. In recent years in some areas of all the transparent plastic made of sheet collectively referred to as plexiglass, in fact, this is wrong, acrylic is a pure polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) material, and the PMMA sheet called acrylic sheet.3. Acrylic sheet characteristics and advantages? Acrylic has a high degree of transparency, light transmission rate of 92%, "plastic crystal" reputation. And excellent weather resistance, especially for outdoor applications, the crown of other plastics, and both good surface hardness and gloss, processing plasticity, can be made into a variety of shapes and products needed. Another sheet of a wide variety of colorful (including translucent color plate), another feature is that the thick plate can still maintain a high degree of transparency.
4. History of acrylic? Acrylic (ACRYLIC), commonly known as special treatment of plexiglass. Acrylic research and development, has a history of more than a hundred years. 1872 acrylic polymerization began to be discovered; 1880 polymerization of methacrylic acid is known; 1901? In 1901, the synthesis of acrylic polyacrylate research was completed; in 1927, the use of the aforementioned synthesis to try to industrialize the manufacture of the method; 1937, the development of industrial manufacturing of methacrylate, thus entering the large-scale manufacture. During World War II due to acrylic has excellent toughness and translucency, first, was used in aircraft windshields, tank drivers cab vision mirror. 1948 the world's first acrylic bathtub was born, marking the application of acrylic into a new milestone. Introduction to acrylic Acrylic by the English Acrylics phonetic translation from the Acrylics acrylics and methacrylics class of chemicals commonly known. Including monomers, sheets, granules, resins and composites, acrylic sheet by methyl methacrylate monomer (MMA) polymerization, that is, polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) sheet Plexiglas, "Plexiglas" from the trade name "Oroglas Oroglas" (a PMMA sheet), from "Organic?Glass" (i.e., Plexiglas). But in recent years, all by transparent plastics such as PS, PC, etc. are collectively referred to as plexiglass. Acrylic production process acrylic sheet according to the production process can be divided into casting type and extrusion type, casting type of sheet performance than extrusion type to be better, the price is also more expensive, casting type of sheet is mainly used for carving, decoration, crafts production, extrusion type is usually used for advertising signs, light boxes and other production.[edit]Acrylic characteristics

Specifications: 1.22*2.44m,1.22*1.83m,1.25*2.5m?,2*3m,2.05*3.05m Thickness: 2mm-50mm? 1. Hardness:? Hardness is one of the parameters that best reflects the production process and technology of cast acrylic sheet, and is an important part of quality control. Hardness can reflect the raw material MMA purity, sheet weather resistance and high temperature resistance, etc.. Hardness directly affects whether the sheet will shrinkage bending deformation, processing whether the surface will appear chaffing and so on. Hardness is one of the hard indicators to judge the quality of acrylic sheet. I produced the imported material cast acrylic sheet has the highest hardness index of domestic equivalent products. The average Rockwell hardness value of about 89 degrees. 2. Thickness tolerance:? The control of plate thickness tolerance is an important manifestation of quality management and production technology. Imported material cast acrylic sheet thickness tolerance control within +0.2mm. 3. Transparency / whiteness:? Strict selection of raw materials, advanced formula follow-up and modern production technology to ensure that the sheet excellent transparency and pure white. Flame polished crystal clear. Acrylic sheet and plexiglass "Plexiglass" comes from the English Organic?Glass. In recent years in some areas will be all the transparent plastic made of sheet collectively referred to as plexiglass, in fact, this is wrong, acrylic is exclusively refers to the pure polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) material, and the PMMA sheet called pressed glass. PMMA sheet called acrylic sheet. Acrylic sheet of the characteristics and advantages? Acrylic has a high degree of transparency, light transmission rate of 92%, "plastic crystal" reputation. And has excellent weather resistance, especially for outdoor applications, the crown of other plastics, and both good surface hardness and gloss, processing plasticity, can be made into a variety of required shapes and products. Another sheet of a wide variety of colorful (including translucent color plate), another feature is that the thick plate can still maintain a high degree of transparency.History of acrylic
Acrylic (ACRYLIC), commonly known as special treatment of plexiglass. Acrylic research and development, has been more than a hundred years of history. 1872 acrylic polymerization began to be discovered; 1880 methacrylic polymerization is known; 1901?year acrylic polypropionate resin synthesis completed; 1927 using the aforementioned synthesis method to try to industrialize the manufacture of; 1937 methacrylic industrial manufacturing development was successful, and thus enter the scale of manufacturing. During World War II due to acrylic has excellent toughness and light transmission, first, was used in aircraft windshields, tank drivers cab vision mirror. 1948 the world's first acrylic bathtub was born, marking the application of acrylic into a new milestone. The use of acrylic PMMA has the advantages of lightweight, inexpensive, easy to mold. Its molding methods are casting, injection molding, machining, thermoforming and so on. Especially injection molding, mass production, simple process, low cost. Therefore, its application is becoming more and more widespread, it is widely used in instrumentation parts, automotive lamps, optical lenses, transparent pipes and so on. Acrylic is the best new material to manufacture sanitary ware after ceramics. Compared with traditional ceramic materials, acrylic, in addition to unparalleled high brightness, there are the following advantages: good toughness, not easy to break; strong repair, as long as the soft foam dipped in a little toothpaste can be wiped with a new sanitary ware; soft texture, there is no cold winter feeling of the bones; bright colors to meet the pursuit of personality of different tastes. With acrylic production basin, bathtub, toilet, not only exquisite style, durable, and has the role of environmental protection, its radiation and the human body's own bone radiation level is comparable. Acrylic sanitary ware first appeared in the United States, has occupied more than 70% of the international market. As acrylic production is difficult, high cost, so there are many low-quality and inexpensive substitutes on the market. These substitutes are also known as "acrylic", in fact, is an ordinary organic board or composite board (also known as sandwich board). Ordinary organic board with ordinary plexiglass cracked material plus pigment casting and become, low surface hardness, easy to fade, with fine sand sanding after polishing effect is poor. Composite panels only a very thin layer of acrylic surface, the center is ABS plastic, the use of thermal expansion and contraction is easy to delamination. True and false acrylic, can be identified from the plate section of the subtle color difference and polishing effect? 1. Architectural applications: windows, acoustic doors and windows, light covers, telephone booths, etc. 2. 2. Advertising applications: light boxes, signboards, signs, display racks, etc. 3. 3. Transportation applications: trains, automobiles and other vehicles, doors and windows, etc. 4. 4. Medical applications: baby care boxes, a variety of surgical medical equipment? Civilian applications: sanitary facilities, handicrafts, cosmetics, stents, aquariums, etc. 5. 5. Industrial applications: surface plates and covers for instruments, etc. 6. 6. Lighting applications: fluorescent lamps, chandeliers, street lampshades, etc.? Acrylic characteristics Plexiglass acrylic (acrylic) brief history as early as the 1920s, Rohm and Haasin first invented the use of MMA polymerization into acrylic sheet method, this sheet was later called "Oroglas/Plexiglas". Features:? Weathering and acid and alkali resistance is good, not due to years of sun and rain, and produce yellowing and hydrolysis phenomenon? Long life, compared with other materials, the life expectancy is more than three years. Good light transmittance, up to 92% or more, requires less light intensity, saving electricity? Strong impact resistance, sixteen times that of ordinary glass, suitable for installation in areas where safety is especially important. Excellent insulation, suitable for all kinds of electrical equipment? Lightweight, half the weight of ordinary glass, less load on the building and support? The color is bright, high brightness, which can not be compared with other materials? High plasticity, large changes in shape, easy to process and mold? High recyclability, recognized by the growing awareness of environmental protection? Convenient maintenance, easy to clean, rain can be cleaned naturally, or with soap and a soft cloth can be scrubbed Characteristics of acrylic sheet and its application in the market Acrylic sheet according to the production process of casting and extrusion of two major types of sheet. Acrylic cast sheet high molecular weight, excellent stiffness, strength and excellent resistance to chemicals. This sheet is characterized by small batch processing, unmatched flexibility in color systems and surface texture effects, and a full range of product specifications for a variety of special applications. Extruded acrylic sheet Compared to cast sheet, extruded sheet has a lower molecular weight and slightly weaker mechanical properties. However, this feature is conducive to bending and thermoforming processes, in dealing with the larger size of the plate, is conducive to fast plastic vacuum molding. At the same time, the thickness tolerance of extruded boards is smaller than that of cast boards. Because the extruded plate is a high-volume automated production, color and specifications are inconvenient to adjust, so the diversity of product specifications are somewhat limited. For many years, thermoforming has been one of the most creative uses of acrylic sheet. With the improvement of processing technology and product variety, performance of the rich and perfect, compared to other traditional advertising signage materials, acrylic processing is easier, safer, more reasonable cost-effective products. Characteristics and advantages of acrylic panels Unparalleled outdoor weather resistance - Transparent panels such as crystal clear - High surface gloss, smooth and flat - Complete product range, transparent, translucent, opaline and other colors and a variety of different surface effects Excellent processing performance; thermoforming? Production of outstanding visual effect of the signboard, logo processing easy, reasonable cost - Green, waste materials can be completely recycled, easy recycling - Excellent surface hardness and scratch resistance - Good chemical resistance, better than most other plastic materials - Easy to clean, maintenance, to ensure that the sign, light box appearance year-round Advantages and disadvantages The difference between acrylic sheet and a simple identification method? Acrylic sheet has advantages and disadvantages, in the current domestic pressure grams on the national plate market, there exists a low price, low quality acrylic sheet - recycled acrylic sheet. This type of sheet, is the use of recycled acrylic trimmings, after thermal degradation to get the regeneration of MMA (methyl methacrylate) monomer, and then by the chemical polymerization reaction comes after. It is necessary to specify that, in foreign countries, acrylic manufacturers to develop a scientific waste recycling program, and invested heavily in waste cracking plant, after a rigorous process, you can get pure MMA monomer, and new synthetic monomers, there is no difference in quality. And now some of the domestic backward technology workshop-style small factories, due to the one-sided pursuit of profits, production conditions are simple, the production of degradation of monomer, purity is not high, made of plate, its quality is often not to be commended. Pure new material transparent acrylic sheet Excellent UV resistance, outdoor 10 years without yellowing, will not fade, light loss, not cracking Transmittance is greater than 92%, the cross-section at the transparent colorless High surface hardness, comparable to aluminum and brass Excellent resistance to cracking and chemical resistance High-quality protective film to provide adequate protection Back to the material transparent acrylic sheet UV resistance is very poor, up to six months will be yellowed, sunlight exposure is easy to crack Transmittance is less than 86%, the cross-section of the yellowing Low surface hardness, easy to scratch Easy to crack Low quality of the protective film, easy to age and deteriorate Through this simple identification method, you can easily identify the quality of acrylic sheet good and bad, to avoid some of the Unnecessary losses. Because people do not understand the regeneration of acrylic sheet and its low price, regeneration of acrylic sheet in the domestic market still occupies a lot of space. But it can be predicted that, with the gradual deepening of people's understanding of acrylic materials, the survival of recycled board will be less and less space. Long-term performance As with all plastic materials, the impact resistance of acrylic products will weaken as the temperature decreases. High-quality acrylic sheet, usually using high-quality raw materials and unique formula production process, so that it has excellent long-term outdoor performance, in the light box, signage applications, the expected outdoor service life can exceed 10 years.Acrylic product performance
Weatherability Acrylic sheet has excellent outdoor weatherability, can be bawled out as the best of all plastic materials. Normal outdoor use conditions, the design, processing of reasonable acrylic sheet signage, after 10 years of use, its mechanical strength will not be reduced, the appearance will not significantly change. The translucency of the color plate High-quality acrylic panels are produced in accordance with strict quality standards to ensure that different batches, different panels have the same color. Because the color of the color plate is uniformly distributed along the entire thickness of the plate direction, so the surface of the reverse plate abrasion by the light will have some impact on the appearance of the color. Most of the translucency of the acrylic color plate will be reduced with the increase in plate thickness, for some signage applications, this effect may have a negative impact - for example, in the same sign at the same time when using different thicknesses of the color plate, there will be a significant color difference. In this case, you can consider the use of certain fixed transmittance color acrylic color plate, although the thickness of the sheet together, but present the same color transmittance. Acrylic and advertising signs Whether you want to set up a unified logo in the world of multinational corporations or small stores, factories, offices, there is a need for a durable, eye-catching, unique and relatively economical signage. Acrylic sheet excellent comprehensive performance can fully meet the above requirements, acrylic light box light transmission uniformity and soft and distinct, and therefore not only eye-catching and can save energy; acrylic's own luster makes the acrylic light box signage in the daytime without the lights of the conditions are also exceptionally compelling, but also easy to process, choose the appropriate varieties and processing methods can produce a variety of light boxes or signs. Acrylic light box is durable, outdoor available for more than ten years, installation and maintenance is also very convenient. Acrylic light box signage such as regular cleaning, the method is very simple, with soapy water and soft cloth or brush can be scrubbed, but do not use hard brushes or coarse cloth, such as the need to improve the degree of antistatic light box, sprayed with a special antistatic agent has a significant effect. You may have noticed that McDonald's restaurants around the world are using color and shape of the acrylic signage; BP chose a unique green and yellow acrylic signage decorated gas stations around the world; the famous department store chain store Marks and Spencer (Marks seek Spencer) using a different transmittance of the acrylic board in the Eurasian region, more than 400 stores mounted on the eye-catching and bright signage. Wide application of acrylic acrylic has the advantages of transparent, lightweight, weather-resistant, impact-resistant, easy to mold. Its molding methods are casting, injection molding, machining, thermoforming. Especially injection molding, injection mold, mass production, simple process, low cost. In recent years, under the continuous improvement of machinery and equipment and processing technology, the quality and quantity of acrylic products are increasing, the application range is also becoming more and more extensive, especially advances in science and technology, acrylic has become a liquid crystal display (LCD) of the light-conducting materials. Acrylic applications throughout the industry, and your life is closely related to me: Acrylic stationery gifts Office stationery, educational supplies, business cards / Memo seat (clip), pen holder (seat)?Can be comparable to the diamond plastic - acrylic
[3] acrylic is not only a very good industrial material, but also known as plastic crystal with a clear, transparent and bright and high plasticity, the application of fashionable boutique has an increasing trend. Most of the acrylic fashion boutiques are made of acrylic granules using injection molding processing methods and then with high-quality ancillary materials. Acrylic a variety of fashion boutique, such as leather bags,? Waist refining, watches, high heels, heels, hair accessories, brooches, bracelets, buttons, earrings, necklaces, rings, pendants, Wenzhen and so on, there is unlimited space for the continuation of the development of many types. Because of the high plasticity of acrylic material processing and good surface hardness and transparent luster, often used by designers with a variety of different materials with the application of a variety of exquisite container design, add texture and practicality of containers, such as lipstick and chemicals and other exquisite containers, others, such as massagers, jewelry boxes, fans, and other daily necessities. Utilizing the cool feeling of acrylic material, combined with creative design to make acrylic material perfectly presented in a variety of popular boutique.Acrylic photo frames
