Acrylic is a thermoplastic.
- Thermoplastics are polymers which can be re-molten or softened by heating and even can be solidified by cooling.
- Examples -
- Polyethylene
- Polypropylene
- Polyvinyl chloride
- Polystyrene
- Polyamides
- Polyester
- Ketones
- Polysulfones
- Polyphenylene sulfide etc.
- The melting point of acrylic is 160° C therefore they can't tolerate high temperatures.
- Acrylic is tough and durable but can also be easily scratched.
- They are easily stained by grease and oil.
