PLEXIGLAS® 6N

PLEXIGLAS® 6N by Roehm is an amorphous polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA). Exhibits high mechanical strength, surface hardness, mar resistance, high heat deflection temperature, high light transmission and excellent weather resistance. Offers excellent flow, melt viscosity and free colorability due to crystal clarity. It is supplied as pellets of uniform size. PLEXIGLAS® 6N is particularly suitable for processing by injection molding with standard 3-zone general purpose screws for thermoplastics. Used in optical waveguides, luminaire covers, automotive lighting, instrument cluster covers, lenses, displays, cuvettes and other medical applications.
