Röhm ACRYLITE® Resist ZK-M Acrylic polymer
Categories: Polymer; Thermoplastic; Acrylic (PMMA); Acrylic, Extruded

Material Notes: ACRYLITE® Resist ZK-M polymer is an amorphous, impact-modified thermoplastic molding and extrusion compound based on polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA).

Typical properties of ACRYLITE® acrylic polymers are:

  • high weather resistance
  • high light transmission
  • improved resistance to stress cracking
  • good melt flow rate
  • easy to color
The special properties of ACRYLITE® Resist ZK-M polymer are:
  • medium impact/break resistance and strength
  • low melt flow rate
  • high heat resistance
  • AMECA listed as ZKM (x)
  • FDA food contact use
Application: Used for injection molded parts.
