Plexiglas (acrylic glass)
Plexiglas (acrylic glass) is a synthetic polymer material produced by polymerization of meth acrylic acid and its derivatives
This material is characterized by high transparency and strength, which allows it to be used in various industries.
It has many advantages compared to ordinary glass, such as:
Durability. Stronger than glass, while less prone to shattering and scratching.
Transparency. It has high transparency, which makes it possible to use it for the manufacture of windows, doors, balcony structures and other elements of architectural design.
Lightness. Lighter than glass, which allows reducing the weight of the structure and facilitate installation.
Heat resistance. Resistant to high temperatures, which allows it to be used for the production of lamps, lanterns and other lighting elements.
Chemical resistance. Resistant to the action of many chemicals, which allows it to be used in the laboratory and chemical industry.
Energy saving. It has high thermal insulation, which allows you to reduce heating and air conditioning costs.
Ease of Machining. It can be easily cut, drilled, milled and bent to create a variety of shapes and designs.
Plexiglas is used in a variety of industries, including construction, automotive, electronics, medicine, advertising, and more
In the construction industry, plexiglass is used for the manufacture of windows, doors, balcony structures, facades, billboards, domes and other elements of architectural design.
One of the main advantages of plexiglass is its high strength, which allows you to use it to create safe and reliable structures. Plexiglas can be used both in the exterior and in the interior of the premises. Providing an aesthetic appearance and protection against danger in case of breakage.
Plexiglas also has a high resistance to wear and corrosion, which allows it to be used in changing climatic conditions. Which preserves the aesthetic appearance of the structure for many years
Various technologies are used to produce Plexiglas, including casting, pressing and extrusion. Plexiglas molding is carried out using special molds that are filled with a liquid mixture that has hardened under the influence of heat. Pressing consists in forming Plexiglas under the influence of high pressure and temperature, and extrusion consists in scrolling the liquid throughout the tubular form.
The high transparency and strength of plexiglass, its lightness and aesthetic appearance make it an ideal material for construction and design. Plexiglas is easy to handle and can be of different colors and thicknesses. Thanks to its properties, plexiglass allows you to create structures of various shapes and sizes, which expands the possibilities of architectural design and construction.
In addition, plexiglass can have various properties, such as increased resistance to ultraviolet radiation. Reduction of heat transfer, sound insulation, and others. This allows plexiglass to be used in different areas and under different conditions.
