Poly(methyl methacrylate) CAS#9011-14-7
Methyl methacrylate is one of the most common methacrylates. This acrylic monomer, the essential component of the fluid mixed to the powder, may cause allergic contact dermatitis mainly in dental technicians and dentists. Cases were also reported in those using seulptured nails and in ceramics workers.

Product Application Of Poly(methyl methacrylate) CAS#9011-14-7
PMMA has been used in the area of biomedical applications, which involves the preparation of bone cements for drug delivery/release and cranioplasty. The qualities that made the polymer a potential material for these applications include: non-toxicity, less cost, easy processability, compatibility, minimal inflammatory reactions with tissues, and greater fracture resistance, especially when used in cranioplasty.
PMMA has also been used to widen the applications of chitosan in various fields that include biomedical and pharmaceutical applications. Zuhair et al. reported the successful grafting of a PMMA/chitosan blend. The results indicated an increase in the mechanical properties, such as tensile strength and flexural modulus. The degradation, porosity, and water absorbency of the blend in synthetic body fluid (SBF) with a pH of 7.4 increased with an increase in the chitosan percentage and immersion time in SBF. These behaviors exhibited by the PMMA/chitosan blend illustrate its potentials for drug release applications[22].
