Chemical Properties: 

Methyl methacrylate (MMA), an organic compound with the chemical formula C₅H₈O₂, is a colorless liquid, slightly soluble in water and soluble in most organic solvents such as ethanol, mainly used as a monomer for organic glass, also used in the manufacture of other resins, plastics, coatings, adhesives, lubricants, impregnating agents for wood and cork, paper polish, etc.

Application:

1.Methyl methacrylate is a volatile synthetic chemical that is used principally in the production of cast acrylic sheet, acrylic emulsions, and moulding and extrusion resins.

2.In the manufacture of methacrylate resins and plastics. Methyl methacrylate is transesterified into higher methacrylates such as n-butyl methacrylate or 2-ethylhexylmethacrylate.

3.methyl methacrylate monomer is used in the production of methylmethacrylate polymers and copolymers, polymers and copolymers are also used in waterborne, solvent, and undissolved surface coatings, adhesives, sealants, leather and paper coatings, inks, floor polishes, textile finishes, dental prostheses, surgical bone cements, and leaded acrylic radiation shields and in the preparation of synthetic fingernails and orthotic shoe inserts. Methyl methacrylate is also used as a starting material to manufacture other esters of methacrylic acid.

4.Granules for injection and extrusion blow moulding which for their outstanding optical clarity, weathering and scratch resistance are used in lighting, office equipment and electronics (cell phone displays and hi-fi equipment), building and construction (glazing and window frames), contemporary design (furniture, jewellery and tableware), cars and transportation (lights and instrument panels), health and safety (jars and test tubes) and household appliances (microwave oven doors and mixer bowls).

5.Impact modifiers for clear rigid polyvinyl chloride.
