Esschem EMA - EGDMA Bead Copolymers are a versatile combination of ethyl methacrylate (EMA) and ethylene glycol dimethacrylate (EGDMA). With a higher proportion of EMA, these copolymers exhibit enhanced flexibility due to the less bulky ethyl group present in EMA. Conversely, increasing the EGDMA content results in a more crosslinked structure, leading to greater rigidity. The glass transition temperature remains relatively stable regardless of the percentage of each constituent. By precisely controlling the molecular weight, Esschem can optimize the level of crosslinking, resulting in superior mechanical properties such as hardness and tensile strength. Additionally, the particle size can be tailored to influence surface area and reactivity, allowing for further adjustment of the physical properties.

Esschem MMA - HPMA Bead Copolymers are a versatile range of copolymers combining methyl methacrylate (MMA) with hydroxypropyl methacrylate (HPMA). These bead copolymers offer exceptional performance and customizable properties for various applications. With increased MMA content, these copolymers exhibit elevated glass transition temperatures, melting points, and tensile strengths, providing enhanced strength and durability. Conversely, higher HPMA content improves adhesion and reduces glass transition temperatures, melting points, and tensile strengths, offering flexibility and tailored characteristics. Esschem further enhances the molecular weight of these copolymers, resulting in more rigid and durable materials. By manipulating the particle size, solubility, dispersion properties, and transparency can be optimized, making them ideal for applications that demand transparency, strength, and toughness.

Esschem MMA - Styrene Bead Copolymers are a versatile range of copolymers combining methyl methacrylate (MMA) and styrene. These bead copolymers offer a wide array of properties and applications. With increased MMA content, the resulting materials exhibit remarkable strength and transparency. Conversely, a higher proportion of styrene enhances hydrophobicity, hardness, and impact resistance. The molecular weight plays a crucial role in determining the characteristics of the copolymers. Higher molecular weights, often associated with increased styrene content, yield stronger and more heat-resistant materials. Esschem's ability to manipulate the molecular weight distribution allows for customized properties such as durability, elasticity, and processing ease. Additionally, the particle size of the copolymers influences surface properties and rigidity.

Conversely, increased BMA content lowers these properties while enhancing processability and potential flexibility.By adjusting the molecular weight, Esschem can tailor the copolymer structure to achieve specific rigidity requirements. Additionally, controlling the particle size allows for improvements in mechanical strength, with smaller particles offering larger surface area to volume ratios.

Esschem EMA Bead Copolymers are a range of bead polymers synthesized from ethyl methacrylate (EMA) that offers the strength of polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) with slightly different properties.The copolymers exhibit a slightly lower glass transition temperature, resulting in a softer and more flexible final product compared to PMMA.By controlling the molecular weight, Esschem can customize the heat resistance and strength of the polymer, making it suitable for various applications across multiple industries.The smaller particle size of the beads enhances surface properties like adhesion, while larger particles contribute to a more robust and rigid material.

Esschem MMA - AMA Bead Copolymers are a versatile range of copolymers combining methyl methacrylate (MMA) with allyl methacrylate (AMA). These copolymers showcase the unique characteristics of AMA as a crosslinker in polymers. With varying MMA and AMA concentrations, Esschem offers a wide range of copolymer beads with different properties. Higher MMA content in the copolymer results in elevated glass transition temperatures, melting points, and tensile strengths, making them ideal for applications requiring high strength and rigidity. On the other hand, increasing the AMA content lowers these properties while enhancing crosslinking and hardness. By adjusting the molecular weight, Esschem can further customize the copolymer's rigidity and crosslinking behavior. The particle size of the beads can also be modified to optimize processing and surface properties, including adhesion characteristics.

Esschem MMA - IBOMA Bead Copolymers are a range of copolymers that combine methyl methacrylate (MMA) with isobornyl methacrylate (IBOMA).These bead copolymers offer exceptional strength and performance for a wide range of industries. With their high glass transition temperature, melting point, and tensile strength, they provide incredibly strong polymers that meet demanding application requirements.By controlling the molecular weight, Esschem ensures that the copolymer beads exhibit enhanced strength and rigidity. Furthermore, the performance characteristics, including adhesion, can be tailored by optimizing the particle size.

Esschem EMA - EHMA Bead Copolymers are a unique combination of ethyl methacrylate (EMA) and 2-ethylhexyl methacrylate (EHMA) that offers exceptional properties.The incorporation of 2-EHMA disrupts the polymer chain packing, resulting in lower glass transition temperatures and enhanced low-temperature flexibility, while significantly improving transparency.With variations in molecular weight, Esschem can further enhance the strength and flexibility of these bead copolymers. The smaller particle size of the beads improves processability and has the potential to enhance transparency, while larger particles contribute to a more rigid material.

Esschem MMA - EMA Bead Copolymers are a range of bead copolymers combining methyl methacrylate (MMA) with ethyl methacrylate (EMA). These copolymers exhibit high glass transition temperatures, melting points, and tensile strengths, making them ideal for industries that demand strength and rigidity. By increasing the EMA content, the copolymers offer greater flexibility and the potential for enhanced optical properties. This results in lower glass transition temperatures, melting points, and tensile strengths, providing desired flexibility and transparency. Esschem provides control over the molecular weight to further enhance these properties, allowing for a more rigid and robust copolymer or targeting flexibility and transparency as needed. Particle size control enables fine-tuning of processability and adjustment of surface properties, leading to better performance in applications that prioritize transparency.
