Description

Application
It is primarily used in the production of acrylic plastics such as polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) as well as in coatings adhesives sealants and dental materials.

Purpose
The main purpose of methyl methacrylate is to serve as a monomer for producing transparent durable and lightweight acrylic materials used in a wide range of industrial and commercial products.

General Description
Methyl methacrylate is a colorless volatile liquid with a sharp fruity odor and is an organic ester derived from methacrylic acid. It is highly flammable and readily polymerizes to form plastics.
