Methyl methacrylate is the methyl ester of methacrylic acid. It polymerizes easily to form polymethyl methacrylate. Used in studies for interfacial tensile strength between polymethylmethacrylate-based bioactive bone cements and bone. It has various useful applications, it is used in the production of plastics, adhesives, and coatings.
