Methyl Methacrylate is abbreviated as MMA. It is a colorless liquid that is slightly soluble in water and soluble in most organic solvents such as ethanol. When storing it, you need to pay attention to the temperature and keep it sealed and away from air. It is mainly used as a monomer for organic glass, and is also used to make other resins, plastics, coatings, adhesives, lubricants, wood and cork impregnation agents, paper polishes, etc.
