Poly(methyl methacrylate)is a synthetic polymer from the methyl methacrylate monomer Poly(methyl methacrylate) uses in biological applications because of its lower water absorption capability and biocompatibility.
Poly (methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) is an amorphous transparent thermoplastic polymer. PMMA is recognized as an optical polymer based on its refractive index (1.49). Hence, it is used in optical fibers.
