The Physical Properties of Acrylic & Plexiglass Sheets

Acrylic Sheet is a transparent thermoplastic homopolymer that is often colloquially referred to as plexiglass. This plastic has unique properties that make it ideal for a variety of purposes, ranging from basic household items to fiber optic cables that power the world. These properties have allowed acrylic to enjoy immense popularity in manufacturing as well as DIY projects: High impact resistance High optical clarity Innate weatherability and UV resistance Excellent dimensional stability Lightweight Excellent chemical resistance Out of all these properties, the most commonly cited advantage of acrylic is its durability. Despite its lower price point, it is 10 times more impact resistant than glass. In the unlikely event that acrylic plastic does break, it will fracture into dull-edged pieces instead of sharp, dangerous shards. These properties contribute to acrylic's popularity as windows for commercial buildings.

What is the CMD Cast Acrylic plexiglass Sheet?

Cast acrylic sheet is the plastic sheet of choice for those looking for superior clarity and strength for their applications. Cast acrylic is lightweight, has high impact resistance, and offers superior optical clarity. In fact, acrylic has a higher optical clarity than glass and is 10 times more shatter resistant. Cast acrylic also comes in many sizes, thicknesses, finishes and is easily fabricated and thermoformed to meet your needs. Furthermore, cast acrylic sheet boasts a higher molecular weight than its extruded acrylic counterpart, and it has a better resistance to crazing when exposed to solvents and a harder surface.

What is the CMD PVC Foam Board?

PVC In Profile Polyvinyl chloride PVC is a well known, widely discussed and researched polymer which, because of its unique physical and chemical properties has a wide range of possible applications. It is biologically inert, has good resistance to a wide range of chemicals and possesses inherent fire retardant properties. Materiel Facts PVC has a well established, but constantly improving material science supporting its use. This is driven by several factors including the changing needs of legislation (e.g. REACH) and the need for greater knowledge of the material and how to work with it. PVC behaviour is modified by blending the polymer with different materials to develop a PVC formulation. This formulation will dictate how the polymer processes and th

Plastic Sheets - Acrylic sheets in Profile

Acrylic sheets in Profile Acrylic is a transparent thermoplastic which is often preferred to glass for certain applications due to its comparative weight, cost and ease of handling The material was developed in 1928 in various laboratories, and was first brought to market in 1933. Material Facts Acrylic refers to a family of synthetic, or man-made, plastic materials containing one or more derivatives of acrylic acid. The most common acrylic is polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA), which is a tough, highly transparent material with excellent resistance to ultraviolet radiation and weathering. It can be coloured, moulded, cut, drilled, and formed. These properties make it ideal for many applications including airplane windshields, skylights, automobile taillights, and outdoor signs. One notable application is the ceiling of the Houston Astrodome which is composed of hundreds of double-insulating panels of PMMA acrylic plastic Material Science Acrylic or PMMA is a vinyl polymer, made by free radical vinyl polymerization from the monomer methyl methacrylate. PMMA is a member of a family of polymers which chemists call acrylates, but the rest of the world calls acrylics.

China's foreign trade situation continues to improve

With the recurrence of the epidemic and the normalization of epidemic prevention activities, the economic activities of all countries have been greatly affected, and the prospects of world economic recovery are likely to be lower than expected. However, it is worth noting that, despite the severe challenges, the fundamentals of China's foreign trade remain unchanged and clearly exceed expectations. According to the data released by SIPG, the container throughput of Shanghai Port will reach 43.5 million teU in 2020, hitting a new record high, ranking first in the world for 11 consecutive years, fully demonstrating the strength of China's foreign trade. The recovery of foreign trade is stable and better than expected In 2020, China's foreign trade is significantly better than expected at the beginning of the year. According to the "Report on China's Foreign Trade Situation" released by the Ministry of Commerce in the autumn and data released by the General Administration of Customs, after a sharp decline in January and February 2020 due to the impact of the epidemic, the import and export volume began to pick up in March and showed positive growth in June. After entering the third quarter of 2020, the scale of foreign trade expanded significantly, and the overall scale of import and export in the first three quarters reached a new high in the same period. By November last year, imports and exports totaled 29.04 trillion yuan, up 1.8 percent year on year, turning positive for the first time. The two highlights of China's foreign trade this year are the sharp increase in exports and the increase in the share of

World trade volume rallies in third quarter after COVID-19 shock

Global merchandise trade volumes bounced back in the third quarter of 2020 from a deep second quarter slump brought on by the COVID-19 crisis according to statistics released by the WTO on 18 December. The third quarter rally helped limit the contraction in world trade since the start of the year. More International trade statistics www.decoratepanel.com In the third quarter, the volume of merchandise trade rose 11.6% compared with the previous quarter after falling 12.7% in the second quarter (revised up from an initially estimated decline of 14.3%). Despite the rebound, the volume of trade between July and September was still 5.6% lower than in the same period last year. The third quarter statistics for trade volumes follows on from the data for trade values, which showed a partial recovery according to a previous release. More industrialized regions saw stronger recoveries in their merchandise exports, whereas the pace of expansion was more muted in regions that export natural resources disproportionately. Double-digit export growth compared with the previous quarter was recorded in North America (20.1%), Europe (19.3%) and Asia (10.1%, from a higher base due to a smaller decline in the second quarter), while weaker growth was seen in South and Central America (3.1%) and [Other regions" (3.3%). However, in year-on-year terms, exports in t

Warning! How long does the pressure last?

Asian container shortages will put pressure on the supply chain for at least another 6-8 weeks, meaning it will affect shipments before the Spring Festival. The company has added about 250000 TEU of container equipment in 2020 to meet strong market demand, but it still faces shortages in recent months, CEO Habben Jansen Herberot said. "The congestion in the port and the increase in traffic have exacerbated the problem, and I think this tension will ease in 6-8 weeks ." Congestion means that there are quite a lot of ships on schedule, which also leads to a declining weekly capacity. Jansen call on shippers to provide more accurate demand information and fulfill box volume commitments to facilitate problem solving. Jansen said that in the past few months, the number of booking boxes has increased by 80-90. This means that the gap between the number of orders received by operators and the final shipment volume is increasing. He also called on customers to return containers as soon as possible to reduce turnaround time. "Generally speaking, the average number of times a container is used in a year is five, but this year it has dropped to 4.5, which means 10% to 15% extra containers are needed to maintain normal operation. That's why we asked the customer to return the container as soon as possible ." Jansen believes that the shortage of containers is one of the reasons for the record freigh
