An acrylate based bone cement with well balanced low exotherm, low residual monomer, and high strength properties formulated from (1) a liquid component containing at least three different monomeric (meth)acrylates, e.g. a C.sub.1 -C.sub.2 alkyl methacrylate, a straight or branched long chain (meth)acrylate having a molecular weight of at least 168, and a cyclic (meth)acrylate having a molecular weight of at least 168, and (2) a polymer powder component containing (meth)acrylate polymers or copolymers. The final bone cement may also contain conventional additives such as polymerization inhibitors, activators, crosslinkers, X-ray contrast material, polymerization initiators, antibiotics, antiseptics, and the like.
