Acrylic plexiglass is polymerized from methyl methacrylate monomer (MMA), that is, polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) sheet plexiglass. It is a kind of plexiglass processed through a special process. It has the name "Plastic Queen" and "Plastic". It has the reputation of "crystal" and has high transparency, with a light transmittance of 92%. The physical properties of acrylic determine that it is the best choice as a transparent swimming pool material. Compared with the same thickness of acrylic organic glass and inorganic mineral glass, the impact resistance is 16 times higher. The research and development of acrylic has a history of more than 100 years. It is mainly used in large aquarium projects, large aquariums, cylindrical fish tanks, infinity swimming pools, special-shaped fish tanks in aquarium projects, etc. It also has excellent weather resistance, especially for outdoor use, ranking first among other plastics. It also has good surface hardness and gloss, and has great processing plasticity, and can be made into various required shapes and products. It is a thick plate that can still maintain high transparency.


1. Characteristics of Leyu acrylic


1. Colorless and transparent organic glass sheet with a light transmittance of over 92%;


2. It has strong adaptability to the natural environment. Even if it is exposed to sunlight, wind and rain for a long time, its performance will not change. It has good anti-aging performance and can be used with confidence outdoors;


3. Good processing performance, suitable for both mechanical processing and thermoforming;


4. Non-toxic, harmless even if it comes into contact with people for a long time. However, formaldehyde and carbon monoxide are produced when burned.


5. Strong impact resistance, sixteen times that of glass of the same thickness. Suitable for installation in areas that require special safety;


6. Excellent insulation performance, suitable for various electrical equipment;


7. It is light in weight and half the density of ordinary glass. The load on buildings and supports is small.


8. Strong plasticity, large shape changes, and easy processing and molding;


9. The recyclability rate is high and recognized by the increasing environmental awareness;


10. Easy to maintain and clean, it can be cleaned naturally with rainwater, or wiped with soap and soft cloth.


Due to the difficulty and high cost of acrylic production, there are many low-quality and low-cost substitutes on the market. These substitutes are also called "acrylic", but they are actually ordinary organic boards or composite boards (also known as sandwich boards). Ordinary organic boards are cast with ordinary organic glass cracking materials and pigments, and the surface hardness is
