Poly(isopropyl methacrylate) is an acrylic polymer synthesized from isopropyl methacrylate monomers, belonging to the family of methacrylate esters used in coatings, adhesives, and specialty plastics. This material is primarily researched and applied in protective coatings, dental resins, and adhesive formulations where moderate thermal stability and chemical resistance are advantageous; it is selected over simpler acrylates when enhanced rigidity and solvent resistance are needed without the expense of more specialized polymers.
