Product Details

Trimethylolpropane trimethacrylate (TMPTMA) is a trifunctional methacrylate monomer that will readily copolymerize with other unsaturated compounds using radical curing mechanisms.  Polymerization can be accomplished thermally using peroxide or azo type radical initiators, with ultraviolet (UV) or visible light using radical photoinitiators, or with high energy electrons (EB). TMPTMA is typically copolymerized with other unsaturated compounds such as vinyl, methacrylate and acrylate functional materials to increase crosslinking and improve cured polymer properties such as hardness, chemical resistance and thermal resistance.

BENEFITS

  • Low color
  • Low viscosity
  • Low volatility

UV/EB curable formulated products containing TMPTMA are characterized by:
  • High crosslink density
  • Chemical resistance
  • Hardness
  • High tensile strength
  • Thermal resistance
The actual properties of cured products also depend on the selection of other formulation components such as co-reactants, additives and initiators.
 

Typical Applications

  • Rubber crosslinking
  • Concrete crack repair
  • Anerobic and structural adhesives
