What is acrylic?

Acrylic refers to a family of synthetic polymers derived from acrylic acid or related compounds. It is commonly used in various forms, including acrylic glass (Plexiglas), acrylic paints, and acrylic fibers. Acrylic glass is known for its transparency and impact resistance, making it a substitute for glass in some applications. Acrylic paints are used in art and crafts due to their vibrant colors and durability. Acrylic fibers are used in textiles and clothing.
