Methyl Methacrylate Monome (mma) is an important organic chemical raw material, its polymer polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA, commonly known as plexiglass) and copolymers are widely used in a number of fields, the following are its main uses:

 

Optical and transparent materials

Plexiglass (PMMA): mma monomer homopolymer PMMA transmittance up to 92%, weather resistance, used in the manufacture of aircraft hatch covers, automotive taillights, billboards, building light roof, etc.
Optical devices: such as LED light guides, optical fiber, display lenses, etc., optical grade MMA purity of 99.9%, can withstand extreme temperature differences (-40 ~ 105)

 

Construction & Decoration

Coatings & Adhesives: MMA copolymers are used in architectural coatings and floor paints, which are resistant to abrasion and have strong adhesion; industrial-grade MMA (purity ≥99.5%) accounts for more than 40% of the world's architectural coatings usage
Safety glass: MMA monomer is used as transparent interlayer material for composite glass to improve impact resistance.

 

Transportation

Anti-slip road coating: MMA (Methyl methacrylate) based coating with friction coefficient of 0.8 or more, used in highways, airport runways, with a lifespan of 8~10 years.
Automotive components: lamp lenses, instrument panels, etc., both high light transmission and heat resistance.

 

Medical & Dental

Medical Material: Medical grade MMA (biocompatible up to USP Class VI) used for bone cement, denture base, with controllable curing time (8~12 minutes)
Dental Prosthetics PMMA: PMMA denture edge fit up to 25 micron level, service life extended by 40%.

 

Industrial & Electronics

Electronic Insulation: used in motor coil impregnants, 5G base station filter housings, dielectric loss as low as 0.2dB/km
Textile & Leather: MMA (Methyl methacrylate) as a slurry to improve fabric stiffness by 30%, or used in leather polish agent

 

Other applications

PVC modifier: Production of MBS (methyl methacrylate-butadiene-styrene copolymer) to enhance the impact resistance of PVC.
