Esschem MMA - BMA Bead Copolymers are a range of copolymers combining methyl methacrylate (MMA) with butyl methacrylate (BMA).These copolymers offer a versatile solution with varying properties based on the MMA and BMA content. Higher MMA content results in copolymers with elevated glass transition temperatures, melting points, and tensile strengths, making them suitable for applications that require strength and rigidity. Conversely, increased BMA content lowers these properties while enhancing processability and potential flexibility.By adjusting the molecular weight, Esschem can tailor the copolymer structure to achieve specific rigidity requirements. Additionally, controlling the particle size allows for improvements in mechanical strength, with smaller particles offering larger surface area to volume ratios.

Esschem MMA - IBOMA Bead Copolymers are a range of copolymers that combine methyl methacrylate (MMA) with isobornyl methacrylate (IBOMA).These bead copolymers offer exceptional strength and performance for a wide range of industries. With their high glass transition temperature, melting point, and tensile strength, they provide incredibly strong polymers that meet demanding application requirements.By controlling the molecular weight, Esschem ensures that the copolymer beads exhibit enhanced strength and rigidity. Furthermore, the performance characteristics, including adhesion, can be tailored by optimizing the particle size.

Esschem EMA Bead Copolymers are a range of bead polymers synthesized from ethyl methacrylate (EMA) that offers the strength of polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) with slightly different properties.The copolymers exhibit a slightly lower glass transition temperature, resulting in a softer and more flexible final product compared to PMMA.By controlling the molecular weight, Esschem can customize the heat resistance and strength of the polymer, making it suitable for various applications across multiple industries.The smaller particle size of the beads enhances surface properties like adhesion, while larger particles contribute to a more robust and rigid material.

Esschem EMA - EHMA Bead Copolymers are a unique combination of ethyl methacrylate (EMA) and 2-ethylhexyl methacrylate (EHMA) that offers exceptional properties.The incorporation of 2-EHMA disrupts the polymer chain packing, resulting in lower glass transition temperatures and enhanced low-temperature flexibility, while significantly improving transparency.With variations in molecular weight, Esschem can further enhance the strength and flexibility of these bead copolymers. The smaller particle size of the beads improves processability and has the potential to enhance transparency, while larger particles contribute to a more rigid material.

Esschem MMA - Styrene Bead Copolymers are a versatile range of copolymers combining methyl methacrylate (MMA) and styrene. These bead copolymers offer a wide array of properties and applications.

The molecular weight plays a crucial role in determining the characteristics of the copolymers. Higher molecular weights, often associated with increased styrene content, yield stronger and more heat-resistant materials. Esschem's ability to manipulate the molecular weight distribution allows for customized properties such as durability, elasticity, and processing ease. Additionally, the particle size of the copolymers influences surface properties and rigidity.
