I received a bottle of PMMA in solution with no information about which solvent was used, so I started using acetone to dilute the original solution. I had not experienced any consequences or misbehaviors, but I was still curious about if there is something that I should be aware or not .
Dear all, in the question you mentionned chlorobenzene as a solvent but in the extended explanation you said the solvent is unknown!!! Acetone is a good solvent for PMMA ( see 1st link). If you are looking for a non-solvent to precipitate the PMMA check the 2nd link. My Regards

Do the coating of this solution on a clean glass slide and see the results. Vary the conc of Acetone and check what kind of coating you get. This will be fun as you will get different coating each time you vary Acetone parts. Thanks
