Description

2-Propenoic Acid, 1,14-Tetradecanediyl Ester is a long-chain diacrylate monomer, a diester of acrylic acid and tetradecanediol. This compound is valued for its ability to impart flexibility, hydrophobicity, and cross-linking properties to polymer systems. It is primarily sought by formulators and manufacturers in the polymer and specialty chemical industries for creating advanced materials with tailored performance characteristics.

Application

• UV-Curable Coatings and Inks: Acts as a reactive diluent and cross-linker, contributing to film flexibility, adhesion, and chemical resistance in wood, plastic, and metal coatings.
• Acrylic Resin Modification: Used as a co-monomer to modify the properties of acrylic polymers, enhancing impact resistance, low-temperature flexibility, and weatherability.
• Adhesive and Sealant Formulations: Imparts permanent flexibility and durability to pressure-sensitive adhesives (PSAs), structural adhesives, and sealants.
• Specialty Elastomers: Serves as a building block in the synthesis of polyacrylate elastomers with specific oil and heat resistance profiles.
• Fiber Optic Coatings: Used in radiation-curable coatings for optical fibers to provide protective, flexible secondary coatings.
• 3D Printing Resins: A key component in formulations for stereolithography (SLA) and digital light processing (DLP) to create durable, flexible printed parts.
