VISIOMER® 1,4-BDDMA

1 of 42 products in this brand

VISIOMER® 1,4-BDDMA is a low viscosity dimethacrylate monomer widely used as a crosslinker. It serves as an excellent replacement for styrene in composite resin, functioning as an adhesion promoter and a hardener for PVC plastisols. Additionally, it acts as a coagent for peroxide crosslinking of elastomers. This versatile compound finds applications in industries such as adhesives and sealants, composites, construction, and plastics and rubber.
