Abstract
This work illustrates a prototypal polymeric cover of multi-photomultiplier detector for the Hyper-Kamiokande neutrino experiment. The cover was made of a high transmittance poly-methyl methacrylate (PMMA). The main objective of the present research is to investigate the structural properties of PMMA, correlating them to material parameters and numerical models to evaluate its application to the cover implementation.
