- Let's do some research and find out exactly what are the differences (or the similarities) between acrylic and lucite and how proprietary eponym comes into play. Hoping it doesn't leave you more confused than before you watched this video, so lets stretch our minds a little.

Me encanta tus videos ❤😍!! Gracias por compartir con nosotros!!! 👏👏
I really like this type of video because it really helps people learn to identify and properly name items. I think your community will grow if you make more videos of this type. Like part of your video rotation. There really needs to be more help out there for everyone.
I do videos like this more for myself. People like to be entertained, and aren't much into technical videos. I was working on a video about Bakelite (and many other plastics) and what it actually is, which people also use just like they do the word Lucite. The more people use generalizations now the more knowledge that will be lost to history.
Developed and manufactured by Dupont starting in the 30's, Lucite is just a trademark and a high quality acrylic. Acrylics, (Plexiglas, Lucite, and Acrylite) come from natural gas and is completely inert when in solid form. Lucite acrylic has a slick feel and is fairly light in weight. Lucite acrylic is more resistant to certain chemicals (i.e., alcohol and some cleaning agents) and you can just use soapy water to clean it. Lucite acrylic is less likely to scratch and when it does get scratched, it can sometimes be polished or buffed out. Lucite acrylic is slightly more resistant to UV light and American-made acrylics in general, do not yellow in the sunlight. Some Lucite acrylic can even glow under black light. Lucite has a slightly higher refractive index, which makes it appear clearer and brighter. Hopefully this helps. No data base but the clarity, slickness and weight are a few things to look out for. After awhile, you will gain enough knowledge to understand what is most likely Lucite.
Like Kleenex name brand but we say Kleenex no matter the brand, interesting ❤
I wonder what Puff brand would say to employees that called them kleenex.
