Products in Packaging Coatings: Heat Resistance

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. With increased MMA content, the resulting materials exhibit remarkable strength and transparency. Conversely, a higher proportion of styrene enhances hydrophobicity, hardness, and impact resistance. 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.

Esschem MMA - HPMA Bead Copolymers are a versatile range of copolymers combining methyl methacrylate (MMA) with hydroxypropyl methacrylate (HPMA). These bead copolymers offer exceptional performance and customizable properties for various applications. With increased MMA content, these copolymers exhibit elevated glass transition temperatures, melting points, and tensile strengths, providing enhanced strength and durability. Conversely, higher HPMA content improves adhesion and reduces glass transition temperatures, melting points, and tensile strengths, offering flexibility and tailored characteristics. Esschem further enhances the molecular weight of these copolymers, resulting in more rigid and durable materials. By manipulating the particle size, solubility, dispersion properties, and transparency can be optimized, making them ideal for applications that demand transparency, strength, and toughness.

Esschem MMA - EMA Bead Copolymers are a range of bead copolymers combining methyl methacrylate (MMA) with ethyl methacrylate (EMA). These copolymers exhibit high glass transition temperatures, melting points, and tensile strengths, making them ideal for industries that demand strength and rigidity. By increasing the EMA content, the copolymers offer greater flexibility and the potential for enhanced optical properties. This results in lower glass transition temperatures, melting points, and tensile strengths, providing desired flexibility and transparency. Esschem provides control over the molecular weight to further enhance these properties, allowing for a more rigid and robust copolymer or targeting flexibility and transparency as needed. Particle size control enables fine-tuning of processability and adjustment of surface properties, leading to better performance in applications that prioritize transparency.

Esschem EMA - EGDMA Bead Copolymers are a versatile combination of ethyl methacrylate (EMA) and ethylene glycol dimethacrylate (EGDMA). With a higher proportion of EMA, these copolymers exhibit enhanced flexibility due to the less bulky ethyl group present in EMA. Conversely, increasing the EGDMA content results in a more crosslinked structure, leading to greater rigidity. The glass transition temperature remains relatively stable regardless of the percentage of each constituent. By precisely controlling the molecular weight, Esschem can optimize the level of crosslinking, resulting in superior mechanical properties such as hardness and tensile strength. Additionally, the particle size can be tailored to influence surface area and reactivity, allowing for further adjustment of the physical properties.

Esschem MMA Bead Copolymers are a collection of methyl methacrylate (MMA) bead polymers renowned for their exceptional properties.These polymers exhibit impressive features such as high glass transition temperature, melting point, tensile strength, and impact resistance.Esschem meticulously controls the reaction conditions to create polymers with specific molecular weight distributions, allowing for a wide range of desired properties. This precise control enhances the inherent strength, rigidity, and impact resistance of MMA polymers.Moreover, by carefully manipulating the particle size, Esschem offers the flexibility to customize properties such as hardness, toughness, and processability.
