Bomar Oligomers® XDT-1018

1 of 88 products in this brand
BOMAR®XDT-1018 is a dendritic acrylate with an average functionality of 18. The hyper-branched structure of XDT-1018 imparts the unique combination of low diluted viscosity with unmatched chemical and thermal resistance. XDT-1018 is ideal in applications where withstanding exposure to the harshest conditions is paramount.Great for high-temperature applications because thermogravimetric analysis indicates the oligomer doesn’t decompose until 350 °C.
