Here are two links related to acrylic / plexiglas and polycarbonate properties:

http://www.3d-cam.com/materials/polycarbonate.asp
Do a search and you will come up with several sites that offer similar tables of thermodynamic properties of various plastics. You might check out Lexan as well.
Plexiglas works well if you support the sheet regularly along its length. Almost any plastic over time will flow or deform with application of heat. The issue is more how you can provide adequate non-visible support.
