Acrylic, also known as PMMA or Plexiglas, is a type of organic glass used in various applications throughout our daily lives.

Its chemical name is Polymeric Methyl Methacrylate (PMMA), and it is formed by heating and polymerizing Methyl Methacrylate (MMA) monomer for 5-6 hours.

Acrylic is a significant thermoplastic that is invented early. A beautiful surface and high transparency make it ideal for the building and advertising industries.

Acrylic is more weather resistant than glass and other plastics and utilizes in a wide range of temperatures. It does not shatter; it breaks into large, dreary pieces if it does.

Unlike glass, acrylic has a tensile strength of 10,000 lbs. per sq. and is more significant than ordinary glass in impact resistance. It’s typical to replace glass in applications that require safety and security.

Vacuum forming is better suited to specific projects and applications than others. 

For instance, if you require incredibly thick and sturdy walls for your product or component, this method alone may not be sufficient. 

Typically, vacuum pressure is used to draw or suction the warmed plastic sheet material into or over a mold that determines the final shape and size of the plastic part.

• Each piece is made quickly.
• Low production costs
• Low-cost molding 
• From batch to batch, shapes and sizes are usually consistent.
• Molds in a variety of shapes and sizes
• Simply increase or decrease production as needed.
• Can recycle excess materials into more sheets for future use.
• Encourages rapid prototyping
• The impact of vibrant colors
• Environmental and climate change-resistant
• Hard to deform, hard to fade (generally can protect color 8-10 years)
• Corrosion protection
• Waterproof, fireproof, and anti-combustion

Some of the characteristics are the following:

• Vacuum forming materials should have a low forming temperature, high impact strength, and low shrinkage during cooling.
• Light transmittance is over 93%.
• Sun, wind, and rain resistance Outdoor use with weather resistance.
• Non-toxic, non-poisonous, 100% pure quality.
• Excellent multi-dimensional and color options. It can be dyed, printed, silk-screened, and vacuum coating.

An unheated plastic sheet is vacuum-forced against a single-surface mold, a simpler version of thermoforming.
