...of new marketable products, the emphasis is on the hybrid polymers division (key word: nanocomposites). Polymers with innovative characteristics due to the use of nanomaterials and the representation of three-dimensional items in Lucite blocks (laser marking & welding) are other topics of interest. We began our investigation into these subjects 18 months ago. We expect to bring the results onto the market within the next 1 to 2 years.

The leading suppliers are still Degussa AG with its Plexiglas and Methacrylate divisions, Belgium's Barlo Plastics, Lucite International in the UK, France's Atoglas and Repsol in Spain. Independent extruders and casting companies are potentially set to become less important. This is due to the scarcity of raw materials (PMMA and MMA) and the resultant high pri...

...thermoplastics, such as polycarbonate (PC) or polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA), has been practiced for some time and, to date, has led to mass production of suitably coated moulded polycarbonate parts for headlights and large PMMA windows (Lucite) for buses in the North American market above all. These commercial coatings are based primarily on poly(methyl)siloxanes. Their properties have already been described in detail [29, 30]. A notable expansion of the possibilities can be achieved through co...

The largest suppliers are Altuglas International, Degussa AG and Lucite International, in that order. This group is supplemented by a number of more or less important producers (e.g. Mitsubishi-Rayon, Sumitomo Chemicals, LG MMA Corp.) who concentrate largely on regional markets, especially Asia.
