| Applications | PMMA is a translucent, rigid plastic frequently used as a glass substitute. It can achieve high transparency through a polishing process, making it suitable for applications requiring clear visibility. |
| Strengths | Exceptional mechanical properties, high precision, and repeatability. |
| Weaknesses | More limitations in geometry compared to 3D printing |
