Which of the following is used as a substitute of glass?

Which of the following is used as a substitute of glass?

  • A. Glyptal
  • B. Urea formaldehyde resin
  • C. РММА
  • D. All

Step-by-step solution

РММА (polymethyl methacrylate, PMMA) is a transparent thermoplastic known as acrylic glass, used as a lightweight, shatter-resistant substitute for glass. Glyptal is an alkyd resin used in coatings, and urea formaldehyde resin is used in adhesives and molded articles, not as a glass substitute. Thus, only PMMA is correct.
