Description of πŸ”³ Thick Cast Acrylic Sheet: Optimal Raw Materials

LIGHT IN WEIGHT Acrylic (specific gravity 1.19) is less than half the weight when compared to inorganic glass. CHEMICAL RESISTANT Acrylic is resistant to inorganic chemicals and normal chained hydrocarbons. However, contact with organic solvents may cause swelling, crazing, or cracking. IMPACT RESISTANT Acrylic is approximately 8 to 10 times more resistant to impact than ordinary plate glass. EASY FABRICATION Acrylic can be saw cut, drilled, routed, machined, solvent cemented, polished and strip bent using conventional acrylic sheet fabrication techniques. THERMO FORMABLE An excellent thermoplastic, acrylic may be thermoformed. Because it is a cell cast sheet, it is not subject to the excessive shrinkage that is encountered in extruded or continuously manufactured sheets.

Not as transparent as I expected.

Not as transparent as I expected based on the picture and reviews. Diffuses light a lot, it's hard to read when it's directly against it. Elsewhere there are crystal clear plates.

Pros
  • EASY TO MANUFACTURE Acrylic can be sawed, drilled, routed, machined, solvent bonded, polished and stripped using conventional acrylic sheet manufacturing processes.
Cons
  • There are other interesting options.

Ideal for laser cutting

This is a high quality, flawless material. It is ideal for laser cutting. The edges were clean and smooth. I was able to carve amazingly intricate shapes that were solid despite their small size. The odor was minimal, but please wear a mask when laser cutting for safety.

Pros
  • LIGHT Acrylic (specific gravity 1.19) weighs half as much as inorganic glass.
Cons
  • Other Other

Ideal for filtering light

I bought this to create filters for my recessed lights in front of the house. This color is perfect for Christmas and Valentine's Day, but you need WHITE bulbs of 6000,000 or more and use LED bulbs so they don't melt. Soft white changes color. FYI, put it on a hole saw drill press and remove the pilot drill bit.

Pros
  • CHEMICAL RESISTANCE Acrylic is resistant to inorganic chemicals and normal chain hydrocarbons. However, contact with organic solvents can cause swelling, cracking or cracking.
Cons
  • Cord is shorter than others
