MERACRYL

MERACRYL™ MMA is used as building blocks in a wide range of applications. It provides very good exterior durability and color stability.It has a glass Tg of 105 °C, and is used wherever hardness and thermo-mechanical stability is needed.

MERACRYL™ GMAA is used as building block in applications like paints, dispersions or construction chemicals. It confers specific properties, such as improved freeze-thaw resistance, colloidal stability in emulsion, and enhanced film adhesion.

MERACRYL™ n-BMA is used to provide flexibility to polymers due to its softening temperatures of 20 °C.

MERACRYL™ i-BMA provides flexibility due to its softening temperatures of 50 °C.

Meracryl™ Hema 98 is a functional monomer that can copolymerize with other monomers to produce copolymers with a hydroxy group in the side chain. Hydroxyesters are recommended for heat or room temperature cured coatings with permanent marring and solvent resistance, high gloss retention and weatherability.

Meracryl™ HPMA 98 is a functional monomer that can copolymerize with other monomers to produce copolymers with a hydroxy group in the side chain. Hydroxyesters are recommended for heat or room temperature cured coatings with permanent marring and solvent resistance, high gloss retention and weatherability.

MERACRYL™ MAAmide can be used as a polar co-monomer with a high Tg for improving solvent resistance and cohesion. For specific applications, methacrylamide can be grafted onto natural fibers (e.g. silk weighting).
