Methyl Methacrylate CAS 80-62-6

What is Methyl Methacrylate?

Methyl methacrylate (MMA) is an important organic compound. It is usually a colorless liquid with volatile, slightly soluble in water, and flammable characteristics.

MMA is the main raw material for the manufacture of polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA). PMMA is widely used in construction, automobile, optical devices and other fields due to its high transparency, impact resistance and other characteristics.
