Alkyl acrylate series

NK ESTER BG (1,3-Butanediol dimethacrylate), NK ESTER BD (1,4-Butanediol dimethacrylate) and NK ESTER HD-N(1,6-Hexanediol dimethacrylate) can be used as crosslinking monomer for acrylic resins and other polymers such as MBS*.   NK ESTER NOD-N(1,9-Nonanediol dimethacrylate) and NK ESTER DOD-N (1,10-Decanediol diacrylate) can be used as crosslinking monomer for acrylic resins and other polymers such as […]

2-(Methacryloyloxy)ethyl acetoacetate

AAEM is a specialty methacrylic monomer with three available sites for chemical reaction. AAEM is used to formulate high solids solution acrylic resins and acrylic emulsions for lower VOC emission high performance industrial and architectural coatings. The methacrylic functionality may be used to react AAEM into an acrylic polymer backbone, leaving an acetoacetyl group pendant to […]

α-Methyl styrene dimer

AMSD is a molecular weight modifier for SB latex, styrene series resins, etc. instead of Carbon Tetrachloride that destroys ozone layer. It is a mixture of two different compounds.
