Description

2-Propenoic acid, 2-methyl-, dodecyl ester, polymer with eicosyl 2-methyl-2-propenoate, 1-ethenyl-2-pyrrolidinone, hexadecyl 2-methyl-2-propenoate, isodecyl 2-methyl-2-propenoate, methyl 2-methyl-2-propenoate, octadecyl 2-methyl-2-propenoate and tetradecyl 2-methyl-2-propenoate is a high-performance, multi-component acrylic copolymer designed to deliver exceptional film-forming, binding, and surface-modifying properties. This specialized polymer is engineered to provide a unique balance of flexibility, adhesion, and chemical resistance, making it a critical additive in advanced industrial formulations. It is essential for manufacturers in the coatings, adhesives, and personal care sectors seeking to enhance product durability and performance.

Application

• Industrial and Protective Coatings: Acts as a key film-forming agent and binder in solvent-based and high-solids coatings, providing excellent gloss, weather resistance, and adhesion to diverse substrates.
• Pressure-Sensitive Adhesives (PSAs): Used to formulate adhesives with balanced tack, peel strength, and shear resistance for labels, tapes, and graphic films.
• Personal Care & Cosmetic Products: Serves as a film former and fixative in hair sprays, styling gels, mascara, and nail polish, offering long-lasting hold and water resistance.
• Textile and Leather Finishes: Imparts durable, flexible coatings and finishes that enhance scuff resistance, hand feel, and water repellency.
• Printing Inks: Functions as a resin component to improve ink adhesion, rub resistance, and gloss on various printing surfaces.
• Specialty Additives: Employed as a rheology modifier or dispersing aid in complex formulations to stabilize pigments and fillers.

Quality Control

Our production of this acrylic copolymer adheres to strict quality management systems, ensuring batch-to-batch consistency for reliable formulation performance. Quality is verified through comprehensive testing of key parameters including solid content, viscosity, glass transition temperature (Tg), and residual monomer levels. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing these specifications is provided with every shipment to support your quality assurance protocols.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). Keep away from heat sources and open flame. For long-term storage, ensure containers are properly sealed to prevent moisture absorption or solvent evaporation.
