Thermal expansion
Thermal expansion is the tendency of matter to increase in length, area, or volume, changing its size and density, in response to an increase in temperature (usually excluding phase transitions).
See Poly(methyl methacrylate) and Thermal expansion
Thermoplastic
A thermoplastic, or thermosoftening plastic, is any plastic polymer material that becomes pliable or moldable at a certain elevated temperature and solidifies upon cooling. Poly(methyl methacrylate) and thermoplastic are thermoplastics.
See Poly(methyl methacrylate) and Thermoplastic
Tissue (biology)
In biology, tissue is an assembly of similar cells and their extracellular matrix from the same embryonic origin that together carry out a specific function.

Toughness
In materials science and metallurgy, toughness is the ability of a material to absorb energy and plastically deform without fracturing.
See Poly(methyl methacrylate) and Toughness
Trademark
A trademark (also written trade mark or trade-mark) is a type of intellectual property consisting of a recognizable sign, design, or expression that identifies a product or service from a particular source and distinguishes it from others.
See Poly(methyl methacrylate) and Trademark
Transmittance
In optical physics, transmittance of the surface of a material is its effectiveness in transmitting radiant energy.
See Poly(methyl methacrylate) and Transmittance
Transparency and translucency
In the field of optics, transparency (also called pellucidity or diaphaneity) is the physical property of allowing light to pass through the material without appreciable scattering of light. Poly(methyl methacrylate) and transparency and translucency are transparent materials.

Ultimate tensile strength
Ultimate tensile strength (also called UTS, tensile strength, TS, ultimate strength or F_\text in notation) is the maximum stress that a material can withstand while being stretched or pulled before breaking.
See Poly(methyl methacrylate) and Ultimate tensile strength
Ultraviolet
Ultraviolet (UV) light is electromagnetic radiation of wavelengths of 10–400 nanometers, shorter than that of visible light, but longer than X-rays.
See Poly(methyl methacrylate) and Ultraviolet
UV tattoo
UV tattoos or blacklight tattoos are tattoos made with dyes that fluoresce visibly under a blacklight or other ultraviolet (UV) light source.
See Poly(methyl methacrylate) and UV tattoo
Visible spectrum
The visible spectrum is the band of the electromagnetic spectrum that is visible to the human eye.
See Poly(methyl methacrylate) and Visible spectrum
Water
Water is an inorganic compound with the chemical formula. Poly(methyl methacrylate) and Water are transparent materials.
See Poly(methyl methacrylate) and Water
Wavelength
In physics and mathematics, wavelength or spatial period of a wave or periodic function is the distance over which the wave's shape repeats.
See Poly(methyl methacrylate) and Wavelength
Window
A window is an opening in a wall, door, roof, or vehicle that allows the exchange of light and may also allow the passage of sound and sometimes air.
See Poly(methyl methacrylate) and Window
World War II
World War II or the Second World War (1 September 1939 – 2 September 1945) was a global conflict between two alliances: the Allies and the Axis powers.
