Perspex – Overview

Perspect is actually a kind of acrylic. This is a polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) sheet made from a methyl methacrylate monomer (MMA). The only difference from regular acrylic is that Perspex is the trade name. This is Lucite International's premium branded acrylic, a material manufactured to meet the highest possible industry standards. It has an enviable reputation as the highest quality acrylic on the market and I think its reputation is perfectly worthy.
