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.
