Esschem MMA - IBOMA Bead Copolymers

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.
