Poly(methyl acrylate)
(重定向自Polymethyl acrylate)
Poly(methyl acrylate) (PMA) is a hydrophobic synthetic acrylate polymer. PMA, though softer than polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA), is tough, leathery, and flexible.
It has a low glass-transition temperature about 10°C (12.5°C in case of PMA).
High-energy radiation leads to cross linking in PMA. However in polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA), a compound similar to PMA, degradation occurs instead.
