Degussa Plexiglas® hw55 Clear Molding Compound
Subcategory: Acrylic; Thermoplastic
Material Notes: Description: PLEXIGLAS® hw55 clear is a copolymer based on methyl methacrylate (MMA) with comonomer constituents. Besides showing the familiar properties of standard PLEXIGLAS® molding compound, such as- high light transmission
- good flowability
- high mechanical strength, surface hardness and abrasion resistance
- excellent weatherability
PLEXIGLAS® hw55 clear offers the additional benefits of - increased heat deflection temperature under load
- improved resistance to stress cracking
- optimized inherent color
PLEXIGLAS® hw55 clear is particularly suitable for injection molding of technical items. Uses of PLEXIGLAS® hw55 clear: lighted keys, luminaire covers, fiber optics. Information provided by degussa.
