ACRYLITE® 8N acrylic polymer is an amorphous thermoplastic molding and extrusion compound based on polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA).
Typical properties of ACRYLITE® acrylic polymers are:
excellent weather resistance
high light transmission
high mechanical strength
high surface hardness and mar resistance
good melt flow rate
versatile colorability due to crystal clarity
The special properties of ACRYLITE 8N polymer are:
highest heat resistance
high melt strength
UV light absorption options
low levels of lubricant
AMECA listed
Application
Used for injection molding commercial and residential lighting lenses, automotive lenses and parts, optical devices and extruded profiles.
