In the rapidly changing advertising sign market, the position of acrylic sheet can be said to be at its peak. Acrylic billboards have the characteristics of novel appearance, diverse designs, and eye-catching features, which enable customers to receive ideal returns on their investment and gradually occupy an increasing market share in the billboard market. The perfect combination of excellent performance of acrylic material, outstanding creativity of designers, and sophisticated manufacturing techniques of signboard manufacturers has made the inspiration it sparks a reality. So, what exactly is acrylic sheet?

What are the characteristics of acrylic sheet:

1. Excellent weather resistance

2. Higher surface hardness and surface gloss

3. Good high temperature resistance performance

4. Excellent processing performance, easy processing, and reasonable cost

5. Renewable utilization of waste

6. Chemical resistance, stronger than most other plastic materials

7. Easy to clean and maintain, keeping the appearance of acrylic LED billboards and light boxes unchanged for ten years

It should be noted that everything has its advantages and disadvantages, and acrylic sheets are no exception. As we mentioned above, the waste materials of acrylic sheets can be thoroughly recycled and reused. Therefore, the so-called inferior sheets are acrylic sheets made from recycled MMA monomers, also known as recycled sheets. The emergence of recycled sheets is due to people's incomplete understanding of recycled sheets and their low prices, which still occupy a large market space in China. However, as people's understanding of acrylic materials gradually deepens, the living space for recycled boards will become smaller and smaller. How to distinguish or differentiate between good and bad acrylic sheets:

1. Appearance: The appearance of the recycled board is yellowish, which is very noticeable from its cross-section;

2. The surface is easy to scratch. From the characteristics of acrylic sheet we mentioned above, we can understand that it has excellent surface hardness and scratch resistance. However, recycled sheets also produce irritating odors during cutting;

3. Sensitive to paint and ink, prone to silver lines or cracks;

4. Bubbles and emits black smoke with a pungent odor during combustion;

5. Long term performance: High quality acrylic sheets are usually produced using high-quality raw materials and unique formula production processes, giving them excellent long-term outdoor performance. For light box and sign applications, the expected service life can exceed 10 years.
