The density of plexiglas is rho = 1,190 kg/m³ or rho = 1.19 g/cm3.

To calculate the relative density of a substance, you divide the density of the substance by the density of water. The formula is: Relative Density Density of Substance / Density of Water. The relative density is a measure of how dense a substance is compared to water.
One way to tell the difference between plexiglass and glass is by tapping on them - glass typically produces a clear, high-pitched sound, while plexiglass has a duller, lower pitch. Another way is by gently scratching the surface - glass is harder than plexiglass, so glass will resist scratches more. Lastly, if you look closely, glass may have small imperfections or air bubbles that plexiglass usually does not have.
An object will float - on water for example - if its density is less than the density of water. Density = mass / volume.An object will float - on water for example - if its density is less than the density of water.

Density is a measure of how much mass is contained in a given volume of a substance, while relative density compares the density of a substance to the density of a reference substance (usually water). Relative density is dimensionless and is often used to identify substances or determine their purity based on their comparison to a standard substance.
A plexiglas box is a light transparent weather resistant thermoplastic container.
The advantages of Plexiglas compared to that of normal glass are first that Plexiglas cost a fraction of the price, second it is very durable and wont shatter like glass.
Plexiglas was registered in 1935 by Delaware company Rohm & Haas, and appears to be owned by a French company called Arkema. The most recent related registration, for Plexiglas Edge FX in 2005, was by Arkema directly.
Yes
Paint
Rubbing alcohol as soon as possible. Plexiglas is a bit porous and the die can get into it if left for any length of time.
It's a kind of plastic.
Plexiglas
Lucite
Plexiglas has it's own proprietary adhesives. Most are essentially plexiglas melted in a liquid such as Methyl ethyl ketone. -Used properly this melts the edges together, -the smoother the cut edge, the better your joint will be. I smooth my edges on a planer. Adhesives for different uses with Plexiglass are IPS Weld On #4, #10 and #16. -Many of these are available in local plastics stores.

Yes, not only is Plexiglas completely recyclable, it is also extremely durable. This type of glass is not recycled with standard glass but can be taken to most recycling centers.
