Description

Allyl Methacrylate is a bifunctional monomer containing both a methacrylate and an allyl group, offering unique reactivity for cross-linking and polymerization. This compound is essential for creating polymers with enhanced thermal stability, chemical resistance, and tailored mechanical properties. It is a critical raw material for manufacturers in the coatings, adhesives, and specialty plastics industries seeking to improve product performance.

Application

• Cross-linking Agent: Used to introduce cross-links in acrylic and polyester resins, improving hardness, solvent resistance, and thermal stability in coatings and films.
• Adhesive Formulations: Imparts enhanced adhesion and durability in structural and pressure-sensitive adhesives.
• Dental & Medical Polymers: Serves as a co-monomer in the production of biocompatible polymers for dental composites and bone cements.
• Fiber Optics & Optical Lenses: Utilized in the synthesis of high-refractive-index, transparent polymers for optical applications.
• UV-Curable Systems: Acts as a reactive diluent and cross-linker in inks, coatings, and 3D printing resins that cure under UV light.
• Modifier for Rubber & Elastomers: Enhances the properties of synthetic rubbers, improving oil and abrasion resistance.

Quality Control

Our Allyl Methacrylate is produced under stringent quality management systems. Every batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including gas chromatography (GC) for purity and identity confirmation, to ensure it meets exacting industry standards. Certificates of Analysis (COA) with full traceability are provided for each shipment.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, well-ventilated area away from heat sources and incompatible materials. Due to its highly volatile and light-sensitive nature, containers should be kept tightly sealed and under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen) for long-term storage to prevent polymerization and maintain product integrity. Recommended storage temperature is 2-8°C.
