Why can acrylic sheet replace glass?

Glass is the first thing we come into contact with. In our opinion, transparent products are generally made of glass. We have never thought that one day glass will be eliminated by acrylic products. Maybe acrylic products are constantly improved based on the disadvantages of glass to replace glass. What is the leap of acrylic products? Let me explain to you the main reasons why acrylic products replace glass.

1. Acrylic light transmittance is very good, the light transmittance is above 92%, while the light transmittance of ordinary glass is 85%, so dyed and colored acrylic craft products will be crystal clear and very beautiful under sunlight!

2. Acrylic has a very good insulation effect, which is required in many electronic products, such as some very small component insulators used in tablets, mobile phones, computers, audios, televisions and other products. When the product is being repaired, pay attention to it, you can see it all.

3. Acrylic is very resistant to weather, it will not turn yellow or become broken due to exposure to the sun, freezing, etc., so it is very convenient for you to clean it.

Everyone usually pay attention to products such as light boxes, billboards, and roadside lamp covers around the road after get off work. Many of them are acrylic materials, regardless of wind, rain, snow, sun, light boxes and advertisements made of acrylic. Brand and lampshades have a very long service life because of the stability and lightness of the acrylic material. Think about it if such a high light box is made of ordinary glass, and people walk down every day, if it falls...

4. Acrylic is very environmentally friendly and can be used repeatedly. You may usually encounter glass cups, or something broken, just take a broom and sweep them into the trash can and finish the work. Some ordinary glass products are lost when they move because they are heavy and inconvenient to carry. It's a pity, and you can't sell it at a good price. But if you have products made of acrylic materials at home, don't be so prodigal. The price of recycling waste products of this material is very high! Everyone knows whoever collects waste.

5. Acrylic has a very high freedom of shaping, and can be processed at will to become the type you want very much:

Because acrylic materials are lighter than ordinary glass materials, and the cutting technology is not complicated, acrylic products can basically meet the needs of various industries for product customization, such as the cosmetic display racks, photo frames, watch racks, or large scales that are common in our daily lives. The size, shape, height and thickness of aircraft windows, fighter window covers, tank viewing angle windows, etc. can all be made according to customer needs.

6. Acrylic is more than 20 times more resistant than ordinary glass. This is true in foreign countries. When a certain thickness of acrylic material is placed in front of the test protector, the standard American M16 assault rifle is connected. Shooting can never penetrate in front of the acrylic material and damage the target, so this is why acrylic is widely used as a bulletproof material in some foreign leaders' special vehicles.

7. Acrylic has a very strong anti-corrosion ability: It is no exaggeration to tell everyone that if you put strong sulfuric acid directly on the acrylic material, there is no problem at all.

Based on the above 7 advantages, it is enough to replace glass. This is also the reason why acrylic products have jumped up. Of course, this is only part of the advantages of acrylic products, otherwise acrylic products will not be applied to various fields.
