Controlled Fluidics - Acrylic Manifolds

Acrylic is a clear plastic that is one of the most frequently used materials for bonded device manifolds due to its low cost, easy machinability, and excellent clarity. Many use the name "acrylic" interchangeably with Plexiglas® (and Perspex) as this plastic material can become optically clear with post-machining polishing. This is why acrylic window panes are becoming more popular, especially in mass transit. All these materials are made from polymethyl methacrylate (or PMMA), however, each has some slight differences in terms of quality and performance.
