Acrylic processing instructions
Storage and handling of boards:
● Store the sheet in a dry, ventilated environment at room temperature. Do not expose the sheet to direct sunlight, heat, or moisture.
● Do not peel off the protective film before using the sheet, because the daily dust and dirt will adhere to the surface of the sheet due to static electricity. The protective film also protects the board from abrasion and scratches.
● Avoid warping, the plate should be naturally flat storage, for vertical storage, it is best to the plate into a small angle storage, and placed under the support.
Characteristics of Acrylic
● Light weight, only about half of ordinary glass, specific gravity (1.19-1.20).
● high transparency, transparent plate of light transmission rate of 93% and above, more than ordinary glass, and has a crystal-like luster.
● white board with good light diffusion and light transmission, widely used in Dengzhao, advertising light boxes.
● has excellent UV resistance and weather resistance, can be used in tropical and cold outdoors.
● easy to thermoforming, with a blast oven will be thoroughly baking soft plate, the temperature reaches 140 ℃ to 160 ℃ to shape,
● Plates can be molded many times without damage.
● High surface hardness, equivalent to aluminum, more than most other plastics, but the ordinary plate can not withstand the steel, ceramics and glass and other inorganic materials, friction, should be properly protected.
● Resistant to common chemicals.
● Has good impact resistance.
● can be fully recycled, environmentally friendly
● Complete product variety: colorless transparent board, transparent transparent board, opaque color board, white board and porcelain white board, blackboard, mirror panel, anti-punch board and so on, and can be customized according to customers.
● Thickness from 10 mm to 650 mm can be produced.
How to Avoid Deformation of Acrylic Products
● The frame should be reserved for shrinkage and expansion.
● The oval-shaped screw hole must be drilled to fit the screw.
● Select the elastic rubber gasket.
● Hot forming increases the impact strength and releases internal stress.
● Thermoformed into wave type, diamond type and semi-circular shape to prevent deformation of the acrylic plate due to gravity droop.
● When using a large acrylic sheet, increase the thickness to prevent the sheet from drooping due to its own weight.
● choose the appropriate thickness to avoid the wind caused by acrylic bending deformation.
Precautions for use
● ordinary acrylic sheet heat distortion temperature is about 100 ℃, continuous use temperature should not be higher than 85 ℃.
● Acrylic sheet surface hardness is equivalent to aluminum, in the use or processing should be careful to avoid scratching the surface. Such as being scratched, can be restored by polishing the original glossy surface.
● Acrylic board is prone to static electricity, dust absorption. Clean with a soft cotton cloth dipped in 1% soapy water to wipe the test can be.
● Acrylic cast sheet linear expansion coefficient of about 7×10-5m / m.K, in the installation, fixed acrylic plate must be considered when leaving adequate stretching gap.
