PLEXIGLAS®, Röhm’s brand of polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA), has been a key material in various industries for over 90 years. The basic and specialty molding compounds of PLEXIGLAS® are reliable and innovative materials for modern and sustainable design thanks to their exceptional properties: They offer the highest surface hardness among all thermoplastic polymers and are particularly robust, as well as extremely resistant to UV radiation and weathering. These characteristics significantly contribute to the long lifespan of the products that use PLEXIGLAS®. PLEXIGLAS® proTerra molding compounds are produced from sustainable raw materials and reduce the carbon footprint without compromising on proven performance.
PLEXIMID® (PMMI) is known for its excellent heat resistance and high transparency, making it particularly suitable for demanding applications in the optics and electronics industries.
