The polymer plymethyl methacrylate is known for its transparent structure and is a thermoplastic. The monomer of polymethyl methacrylate is methyl methacrylate. Because it is transparent it is used widely in making shatter resistant glasses. It is used in LCD screens, sanitaryware etc, spectacle lenses etc.

Polmethyl methacrylate is in fact a substitute for glass and it has proven to be an apt one too.
