I'll let the new kid search for numbers, but when you ask for elasticity, do
you mean Elongation at Break or Tensile Modulus? Also, density and Poisson's
ratio are two different things. :-o Joe

Hi Tim,
I have attempted to find the specifications of acrylic (Polymethyl
Methacrylite) for some time. I am trying to find the elasticity as well as
the density (Poisson's ratio) of this material. Do you have any books that
will give you these answers?
