1. What are the advantages of acrylic sheet?
Here are the advantages of acrylic sheets as follows,
(1) With crystal-like transparency, the light transmittance is above 92%, the light is soft, the vision is clear, and the acrylic colored with dyes has a good color development effect.
(2) Acrylic sheet has excellent weather resistance, high surface hardness and surface gloss, and good high-temperature performance.
(3) Acrylic sheet has good processing performance, which can be thermoformed or mechanically processed.
(4) The transparent acrylic sheet has a light transmittance comparable to that of glass, but the density is only half of that of glass. In addition, it is not as brittle as glass, and even if broken, it will not form sharp shards like glass.
(5) The wear resistance of acrylic sheets is close to that of aluminum, with good stability and corrosion resistance to various chemicals.
(6) Acrylic sheets have good printability and sprayability. With proper printing and spraying processes, acrylic products can be given an ideal surface decoration effect.
(7) Flame resistance: It is not self-igniting but is a flammable product and does not have self-extinguishing properties.
2. What are the disadvantages of acrylic sheet?
Here are the disadvantages of acrylic sheets as follows,
(1) Acrylic will emit a large amount of formaldehyde and carbon monoxide when it is not fully finished. These are toxic gases and are also very harmful to the human body.
(2) The production process is very particular. If the production is not good or there are flaws in the details of the produced things, it is very likely that a certain amount of formaldehyde will be released, causing harm to the human body.
(3)Although there are many varieties of acrylic sheets and rich colors, solid wood is more high-end than solid wood, so many people also choose to use solid wood instead of acrylic sheets.
3. How does Acrylic Sheet perform?
Acrylic sheet has good performance, such as,
(1) Good transparency, the light transmittance of more than 92%, soft light, and acrylic colored with dyes has a strong color development effect.
(2) It has strong weather resistance, strong hardness, and high-temperature resistance.
(3) Good processing performance, either thermoforming or mechanical processing can be used.
(4) Although the transmittance is the same as that of glass, the density is only half of that of glass. In addition, it is not brittle like glass, and even if it breaks, it will not form sharp fragments like glass.
(5) It has the characteristics of wear resistance, stability, and corrosion resistance.
4. What should you pay attention to when using acrylic sheet?
(1) Acrylic sheet cannot be stored in the same place with other organic solvents, let alone contact with organic solvents.
(2) During transportation, the surface protective film or protective paper cannot be scratched.
(3) It cannot be used in an environment where the temperature exceeds 85°C.
(4) When cleaning the acrylic sheet, only 1% soapy water is needed. Use a soft cotton cloth dipped in soapy water. Do not use hard objects or dry wipes, otherwise the surface will be easily scratched.
(5) Acrylic plate has a large thermal expansion coefficient, so the expansion gap should be reserved due to temperature changes.
5. How to process acrylic sheet?
Acrylic sheets have good processing properties, which can be thermoformed (including compression molding, blow molding and vacuum molding), or mechanical processing methods such as drilling, turning, cutting, etc. The mechanical cutting and engraving controlled by a microcomputer not only greatly improves the processing accuracy, but also produces patterns and shapes that cannot be completed by traditional methods. In addition, the acrylic sheet can be laser cut and laser engraved to produce products with peculiar effects.
6. What are acrylic sheets used for?
Commonly, acrylic sheets can be used for as follows,
(1) Architectural applications: shop windows, soundproof doors, and windows, lighting covers, telephone booths, etc.
(2) Advertising applications: light boxes, signs, signs, display stands, etc.
(3) Transportation applications: doors and windows of vehicles such as trains, cars, etc.
(4) Medical applications: baby incubators, various surgical medical instruments, civilian products: sanitary facilities, handicrafts, cosmetics, brackets, aquariums, etc.
(5) Industrial application: the instrument panel and cover, etc.
(6) Lighting applications: fluorescent lamps, chandeliers, street lampshades, etc.

11. What are the machining characteristics of acrylic sheets?
Acrylic sheets have many machining characteristics, such as,
(1) Strong plasticity, large shape change, easy processing, and forming.
(2) High recyclability rate, recognized by growing environmental awareness.
(3) Easy to maintain, easy to clean, rain can be cleaned naturally, or just scrub with soap and a soft cloth.
12. Is Acrylic Sheet easy to bond with adhesives?
It's easy to do with the chlorine (methane), followed by acrylic glue, followed by AB glue, but it is difficult to operate, and the possibility of leakage is high.
