Röhm PLEXIGLAS® Optical POQ64 PMMA  (discontinued **)
Categories: Polymer; Thermoplastic; Acrylic (PMMA)

Material Notes: Product Profile: PLEXIGLAS® Optical POQ64 is an amorphous thermoplastic molding compound based on polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA). In addition to the familiar properties of PLEXIGLAS® molding compounds, such as
  • excellent light transmission and brilliance,
  • very good weather resistance,
  • high mechanical strength, surface hardness and mar resistance,
PLEXIGLAS® Optical POQ64 is distinguished by its
  • guaranteed purity and clarity,
  • very good flow properties,
  • high luminous efficiency in medium to long light paths.
Application: PLEXIGLAS® Optical POQ64 is excellently suited for the injection molding or injection compression molding of technical components to meet stringent optical requirements.

The former Evonik Methacrylates business has been sold to Röhm GmbH (Roehm).
