Description

(Hexadecyl)Icosyl Methacrylate is a high molecular weight, long-chain alkyl methacrylate monomer. This specialty chemical is valued for its ability to impart exceptional hydrophobicity, flexibility, and low surface energy to polymer formulations. It is primarily sought by industrial chemists and formulators in the coatings, adhesives, and advanced materials sectors seeking to modify polymer properties for demanding applications.

Application

• As a key monomer for synthesizing hydrophobic and oleophobic polymers.
• Modifying acrylic resins to enhance water repellency and stain resistance in industrial and architectural coatings.
• Improving the flexibility and low-temperature performance of pressure-sensitive adhesives (PSAs) and sealants.
• Manufacturing release coatings and anti-fouling surfaces.
• Producing lubricant additives and viscosity index improvers.
• Formulating specialty inks and overprint varnishes requiring specific surface properties.
• Developing compatibilizers and processing aids for polymer blends.
