About polymethyl methacrylate
Polymethyl methacrylate is a synthetic resin produced by the polymerization of methyl methacrylate. It is a clear acrylic material and can be used to replace glass in different products, such as electronic products and furniture. Since polymethyl methacrylate is a linear thermoplastic polymer, it possess high mechanical strength and is also highly scratch resistant.
Technavio's analysts forecast the global polymethyl methacrylate market to grow at a CAGR of 5.03%, in terms of volume, over the period 2014-2019.
