Using methyl methacrylate or methacrylic acid as the raw material, we produce a range of methacrylic esters with diverse characteristics, suitable for many different applications. These substances have been selected as the raw material for acrylic paint that excellent weather and chemical resistance. We can accept custom orders based on design requirements such as hard materials, soft materials, hydrophilicity, hydrophobicity, and reactivity to provide products usable in many different applications.
Ethyl methacrylate (EMA) is a low-boiling monomer with a structure similar to MMA, but is more hydrophobic than MMA. It is used in paints, adhesives, dental materials, etc.
Butyl methacrylate (BMA) is a monomer that is more hydrophobic than MMA and has a lower Tg. It is used as a raw material for paints, adhesives, textile treatment materials, paper processing agents, leather, and metal surface treatment agents.
i-Butyl methacrylate (IBMA) is a monomer that is more hydrophobic than MMA and has a lower Tg. It is used as a raw material for paints, adhesives, lubricating oil additives, dental materials, fiber treatment agents, and calcined materials.
t-Butyl methacrylate (TBMA) has a Tg similar to that of MMA (approximately 100°C for the homopolymer), but is a more hydrophobic monomer than MMA. It is expected to improve solubility in weak solvent systems. Furthermore, by introducing it into polymers, it is expected to lower the density and viscosity compared to MMA. It is used as a raw material for paints, adhesives, dispersants, fiber treatment agents, coating materials, etc.
2-Ethylhexyl methacrylate (EHMA) is a monomer that is more hydrophobic than MMA and has a lower Tg. It is widely used as a raw material for paints, adhesives, fiber treatment materials, paper processing aids, dental materials, etc.
Lauryl methacrylate (LMA) is a monomer that is more hydrophobic than MMA and has a lower Tg. It is used as a raw material for deodorants, adhesives, lubricant additives, paper processing agents, etc.
Alkyl methacrylate (SLMA) is a monomer that is more hydrophobic than MMA and has a lower Tg. It is used as a raw material for paper coatings, paints, lubricant additives, textile treatment agents, adhesives, etc.
Benzyl methacrylate (BZMA) is a monomer with a relatively high refractive index. It is used as a raw material for resin modifiers, fiber treatment agents, paints, optical materials, etc.
Isobornyl methacrylate (IBXMA, IBOMA) is a monomer with a high Tg and a relatively high refractive index. It is used as a raw material for optical materials, adhesives, paints, etc.
Glycidyl methacrylate (GMA) is a monomer that has a reactive epoxy group and is more hydrophilic than MMA. It is used as a raw material for resin and rubber modifiers, photosensitive resins, fiber treatment agents, paints, etc.
Allyl methacrylate (AMA) can be used as a crosslinking agent, and can also be used in graft polymerization by taking advantage of the difference in reactivity between the methacrylic group and the allyl group.It is used as a raw material for thermoplasticity modifiers for resins, resin surface hardness improvers, crosslinking agents, etc.
2-Hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA) is a hydrophilic and reactive monomer containing a hydroxyl group. It is used as a raw material for paints, adhesives, resin modifiers, photosensitive resins, paper processing agents, etc.
Hydroxypropyl methacrylate (HPMA) is a hydrophilic and reactive monomer with a hydroxyl group. Because it is a secondary alcohol, it has milder hydroxyl group reactivity than HEMA. It is used as a raw material for paints, adhesives, fiber treatment agents, paper processing agents, etc.
2-Methoxyethyl methacrylate (MTMA, MEMA) is non-reactive but hydrophilic due to its ether structure, making it useful for adjusting compatibility. It is used as a raw material for textile treatment agents, adhesives, inks, paints, and baking materials.
2-Ethoxyethyl methacrylate (ETMA, EEMA) is non-reactive but hydrophilic due to its ether structure, making it useful for adjusting compatibility. It is used as a raw material for paper processing agents, adhesives, paints, etc.
Ethylene glycol dimethacrylate (EDMA, EGDMA) can undergo radical crosslinking via two methacryloyl groups. It is used as a raw material for crosslinking agents, dental materials, adhesives, optical materials, sheet modifiers, etc.
1,3-Butylene glycol dimethacrylate (BDMA) undergoes radical crosslinking and has a longer distance between crosslinking points than EDMA, allowing for the design of softer polymers. It is used as a raw material for crosslinking agents, adhesives, resin modifiers, sheet modifiers, fiber treatment agents, etc.
Trimethylolpropane trimethacrylate (TMPMA) has three cross-linking points, which allows for the synthesis of stronger polymers. It is used as a raw material for cross-linking agents, adhesives, rubber modifiers, resin modifiers, paints, etc.
Trifluoroethyl methacrylate (3FEMA) can be given a low refractive index and water and oil repellency. It is used as a raw material for optical fiber sheath materials, contact lenses, antifouling agents, etc.
