Products Description
tert‑Butyl methacrylate (TBMA, CAS#585‑07‑9) is a methacrylic‑acid‑derived ester and an essential monomer for polymer synthesis. As a functional monomer, it features a highly reactive methacrylate group paired with a bulky hydrophobic tert‑butyl moiety. TBMA can undergo copolymerization with a wide spectrum of comonomers, including (meth)acrylic acid and its salts, amides and esters, diverse (meth)acrylates, acrylonitrile, maleate esters, vinyl acetate, vinyl chloride, vinylidene chloride, styrene, butadiene, unsaturated polyesters and drying oils. Similar to other conventional methacrylate monomers such as butyl methacrylate and methyl methacrylate, it is well‑suited for emulsion polymerization processes.
Acting as a valuable building‑block feedstock for chemical synthesis, TBMA readily participates in addition reactions with a broad range of organic and inorganic substances. When incorporated into polymer backbones, it imparts multiple outstanding performance attributes to end‑materials, such as chemical resistance, improved adhesion, hydrophobicity, elevated hardness, scratch resistance, heat resistance, high‑solids compatibility and enhanced weatherability.
