Acrylic is a polymer with high resistance to bending, impact, temperature changes, weathering and sunlight. It can be easily shaped, rolled, polished and machined.<\/p>\n\n

Thermoplastic polymers are characterized in that they are meltable at one temperature and formable for some time. <\/p>\n\n

\n

The melting point of thermoplastic polymers is much lower than that of thermosetting polymers.<\/strong> Once fused, the thermoplastics can be molded. This allows obtaining products with a complex shape and a wide variety of colors. <\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n

Once the thermoplastic polymers have been molded, subsequent modification of the shape of the product is not possible.<\/p>\n\n

It is part of the family of polyacrylates, with a great capacity to adapt to changes in temperature and a high degree of transparency.<\/strong> It is a plastic widely used in the manufacture of decorative objects, models, school supplies, toys, etc.<\/p>\n\n
